Notes

  • To manage Active Directory-based IPSec policies, you must be a member of the Domain Admins group in Active Directory, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority. To manage local or remote IPSec policies for a computer, you must be a member of the Administrators group on the local or remote computer. If the computer is joined to a domain, members of the Domain Admins group might be able to perform this procedure. For more information, see Default local groups and Default groups.

  • To open Active Directory Users and Computers, click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Active Directory Users and Computers.

  • To save console settings, on the File menu, click Save.

  • To view the saved console, see Related Topics.

  • You cannot administer Active Directory-based IPSec policy from a computer running Windows XP Home Edition.

  • To manage policies in a remote domain, you must be using a computer that is a member of a domain that is trusted by the remote domain. You cannot configure policies in a remote domain from a computer that is a member of a workgroup (also known as a stand-alone computer).

  • To revise your initial choice, you can start the Microsoft Management Console, add this snap-in again, and save the console again. If you require multiple configurations, you can save the console with another name.

Information about functional differences

  • Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
