- Describe how Microsoft 365 commonly uses directory synchronization
- Module 2: This module examines all the planning aspects that must be considered when implementing directory synchronization between on-premises Active Directory and Microsoft 365.
By the end of this module, you should be able to:
- Identify the tasks necessary to configure your Azure Active Directory environment.
- Plan directory synchronization to synchronize your on-premises Active Directory objects to Azure AD.
- Identify the features of Azure AD Connect sync and Azure AD Connect Cloud Sync.
- Choose which directory synchronization best fits your environment and business needs.
- Module 3: This module examines the Azure AD Connect and Azure AD Connect Cloud Sync installation requirements, the options for installing and configuring the tools, and how to monitor synchronization services using Azure AD Connect Health.
By the end of this module, should be able to:
- Configure Azure AD Connect and Azure AD Connect Cloud Sync prerequisites
- Set up Azure AD Connect and Azure AD Connect Cloud Sync
- Monitor synchronization services using Azure AD Connect Health
- Module 4: This module examines how to manage user identities when you configure Microsoft Entra Connect, how to manage users and groups in Microsoft 365 with Microsoft Entra Connect, and how to maintain directory synchronization.
By the end of this module, you should be able to:
- Ensure users synchronize efficiently
- Manage groups with directory synchronization
- Use Microsoft Entra ID Connect Sync Security Groups to help maintain directory synchronization
- Configure object filters for directory synchronization
- Explain how Microsoft Identity Manager helps organizations manage and synchronize user identities across their organizations and hybrid environments
- Troubleshoot directory synchronization using various troubleshooting tasks and tools
- Module 5: This module examines various password-related tasks for user and admin accounts, such as creating and configuring password policies, configuring self-service password management, configuring multifactor authentication, and implementing conditional access policies.
By the end of this module, you should be able to:
- Manage user passwords
- Describe pass-through authentication
- Enable multifactor authentication
- Describe self-service password management
- Implement Microsoft Entra ID Smart Lockout
