Specify Domains for AIC to Enumerate

Summary​

Speed up domain enumeration in the Access Information Center (AIC)

Issue​

You can specify which domains the AIC enumerates, rather than allowing the AIC to try all of them every time.

It does this every time a user logs into the AIC.

A comma-separated list of domains that AIC is allowed to enumerate on startup.

This list is useful because customers often have domains with trust relationships that are unavailable due to being taken down, etc. This makes application startup take significantly longer.

Instructions​

  1. Navigate to C:\Program Files\STEALTHbits\Access Information Center\.
  2. Open AccessInformationCenter.Service.exe.config with a text editor (run as Administrator).
  3. Locate the AuthSearchDomains setting.
  4. Enter the DNS names of the domains as a comma-separated list in the value attribute: 
    <add key="AuthSearchDomains" value="domain1.com,domain2.com,domain3.com" />
  5. Save the file and restart the Netwrix Access Information Center service.

Result​

The Access Information Center will only enumerate the specified domains on startup, significantly reducing application startup time when unavailable trusted domains exist.
