Getting Started with Domain Watch

Discovery on the Kaseya Server (1) uses a probe agent on a domain computer (2) to communicate with an Active Directory (AD) domain (3). Once connected, the probe "harvests" domain data (4) back to the Kaseya Server.

• Agents are deployed to domain machines using a group policy object (GPO) to download the agent install package (5).
• VSA users can use their domain credential to logon to the VSA (6).
• Portal Access users can use their domain credentials to logon remotely to their machines (7).

• The application protocol used to communicate with the domain server is Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP).
• See OU/Container for more information about "organizational units".
