The SBC uses three configurations uses to sync data from remote server that are configured in the AD Profile:
- Manual Sync – A request based CLI option is provided to trigger a manual sync request. As a precondition, the AD Profile sync attribute should be enabled. Manual Sync will not change any of the delayedSync or syncInterval logic. syncInterval will kick in only after a successful sync due to delayed sync.
- Delayed Sync – This is a date and time string parameter. This value should always be greater than current system time during configuration. So, when the system time is equal to the configured date and time, the SBC will trigger to fetch the data from the remote AD server. As a precondition, AD Profile sync attribute must be enabled. If delayedSync fails to sync, then the SBC retries the sync operation after 1 minute of the failure. To stop the syncing operation, the user can disable the sync parameter in the AD Profile.
- Sync Interval – The value is in the range of 60 minutes to 43200 minutes (30 Days) . This is triggered only after a successful sync due to delayed sync configuration. This syncInterval will trigger sync operation in regular intervals.
Command Syntax
The adProfile is added to the CLI. Execute the following command to configure adProfile.
% set profiles adProfile <DEFAULT_AD_PROFILE> sync <disable/enable> delayedSync <Time> syncInterval <time> applyNormalization <disable/enable> adServerList <list> dcServer <server name>
Command Parameters

Command Example
The following is an example command of how to create an AD Profile.
set profiles adProfile DEFAULT_AD_PROFILE sync enable syncInterval 1440 delayedSync 2019-03-07T23:59:00 adServerList 1 dcServer ADSERVER1
The following example shows how to trigger manual sync:
request system admin <systemName> adManualSync
