Deployment

The following setup guide walks through a typical deployment process to synchronize an already configured Authentication:Active Directory domain sync with Authentication: Microsoft Entra Cloud Sync. It is HIGHLY recommended you view Microsoft's Install the Microsoft Entra provisioning agent article as I have to ensure you are using the correct agent for your environment and are following best practices. It appears deploying the agent on an Active Directory Domain Controller, is fully supported now. Unfortunately, Servers: SAD-DC01 and Servers: SAD-DC02 are both utilizing Windows Server Core, which is still not supported. Future domain controllers in my environment will most likely follow suit, so I will be installing the agent on Servers: SAD-AUTH01, which, in addition to the agent, hosts Authentication: Microsoft NPS to authenticate Network: Road Warrior VPN.
