BloxOne Universal DDI provides the capability for importing Microsoft Active Directory (AD) DNS and IPAM/DHCP objects into the Cloud Services Infoblox Portal by copying them into a dedicated IP Space / DNS view, so you can view and monitor all objects from a single consolidated read-only location. The connectivity requirements are available at Active Directory Connectivity Requirements.

BloxOne Universal DDI also provides the capability for one-way synchronization from Microsoft Active Directory to Cloud Services Infoblox Portal. For more information, see Active Directory-Integrated DNS Zones.

  • Synchronize public zones, private zones, and records from AD to BloxOne Universal DDI. All records supported by BloxOne Universal DDI and Active Directory can be imported into BloxOne Universal DDI.

  • Synchronize Active Directory IPAM data (scope, range, and fixed address) to an IP space in Cloud Services Infoblox Portal.

  • Synchronize DHCP options defined in Active Directory to Cloud Services Infoblox Portal. The synchronized DHCP options are read-only. The DHCP options from Active Directory will be reconciled and stored in a custom option space. The DHCP option items specified for each subnet will be mapped with each IPAM object and will be available under the respective object on the IPAM page.

The following diagram illustrates how to leverage the Active Directory integration feature. To integrate AD with BloxOne Universal DDI, complete the following steps:
