Change Auditor for Active Directory Queries 7.1.1 - User Guide

Configure AD Query Auditing

Introduction

Because the overhead of recording each Active Directory query read operation is likely to be high, you can optimize the process by summarizing similar operations from the same client, and only record the summary periodically. Quest highly recommends that you perform the following steps to optimize the Active Directory query auditing/reporting process to reduce the number of events being generated:

 

AD Query Auditing pageThe AD Query Auditing page displays when you select AD Query from the Auditing task list in the navigation pane of the Administration Tasks tab. From this page you can specify the Active Directory containers to include and exclude in Active Directory query auditing.

NOTE:  

Inclusion and exclusion rules

Only objects that are included (and not excluded) are monitored. For example:

AD Query Auditing page

The AD Query Auditing page contains an expandable view of Active Directory containers included and excluded from Active Directory query auditing.

Added containers display the following information:

2
Click Auditing.
3

RootDSE - select this to include the RootDSE object.
This Object and All Child Objects - select this to specify the containers to include. (Selecting a container will also include any child objects.)
6

The disable feature allows you to temporarily stop including or excluding an individual container from Active Directory query auditing without having to remove it from the AD Query Auditing list.

The entry in the Status column for the container will change to ‘Disabled’.
