What are the responsibilities and job description for the Windows System Administrator - Azure AD position at RIIM?
Must-Have Experience in at Least One of the Following Scenarios:
Active Directory Forest Trust with Entra Connect Sync
- Establishing a bidirectional forest trust between two AD forests.
- Synchronizing both forests to a single Entra tenant using Microsoft Entra Connect Sync.
- Enabling cross-forest authentication for Entra-integrated and AD-integrated apps.
- Requires TCP/IP network connectivity between domains and domain controllers.
- Ideal for legacy AD-integrated apps that require cross-forest access.
Synchronizing Both Forests via a Single Entra Connect
- Using a single Entra Connect server to sync objects from both forests to one tenant, without a forest trust.
- Enabling authentication for Entra-integrated apps but restricting AD-integrated app access between forests.
- Requires network access between the Entra Connect server and both domain controllers.
- Suitable when cross-forest AD app access is not needed.
Entra Connect Cloud Sync for a Secondary Forest
- Utilizing Cloud Sync (lightweight agent) for the secondary forest while keeping the primary Entra Connect setup.
- Synchronization without full AD connectivity, ideal for geographically distributed networks.
- Supports hybrid environments, where one forest operates in a cloud-centric model.
