Vendor Products Microsoft Active Directory
Visible No. This add-on does not contain any views.

The Splunk Add-on for Microsoft Active Directory (AD) lets you collect Active Directory and Domain Name Server debug logs from Windows hosts that act as domain controllers for a supported version of Windows Server.

The Splunk Add-on for Microsoft Active Directory requires that you configure Active Directory audit policy. This is because AD does not log certain events by default. After the Splunk platform indexes the events, you can analyze the data.

This add-on provides the inputs and CIM-compatible knowledge to use with other Splunk apps, such as the Splunk Apps for Microsoft Exchange and Windows Infrastructure.
