||
| ## SHORT DESCRIPTION | ||
|
|
||
| The Active Directory module is a command line interface for managing Active | ||
| Directory. | ||
|
|
||
| ## LONG DESCRIPTION | ||
|
|
||
| The Active Directory module for Windows PowerShell is for IT Professionals who | ||
| are administering and interfacing with Active Directory. The Active Directory | ||
| module provides an efficient way to complete many administrative, | ||
| configuration, and diagnostic tasks across Active Directory Domain Services (AD | ||
| DS) and Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) instances in | ||
| their environments. The Active Directory module includes a set of Windows | ||
| PowerShell cmdlets and a provider. The provider exposes the Active Directory | ||
| database through a hierarchical navigation system, which is very similar to the | ||
| file system. As with drives in a file system, such as C:, you can connect | ||
| Windows PowerShell drives to Active Directory domains and AD LDS, as well as | ||
| Active Directory snapshots. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Coverage of Active Directory Module Cmdlets | ||
|
|
||
| Create, Read, Update, and Delete actions are supported for Active Directory | ||
| objects by cmdlets such as `New-ADUser`, `Get-ADOrganizationalUnit`, | ||
| `Set-ADComputer`, and `Remove-ADUser`. | ||
|
|
||
| Account and Password Policy Management are supported by cmdlets such as | ||
| `Enable-ADAccount`, `Unlock-ADAccount`, `New-ADServiceAccount`, | ||
| `Set-ADAccountControl`, and `Remove-ADFineGrainedPasswordPolicy`. | ||
|
|
||
| Domain and Forest Management is supported by cmdlets such as `Get-ADForest`, | ||
| `Set-ADForest`, `Set-ADForestMode`, `Enable-ADOptionalFeature`, | ||
| `Get-ADDomainController`, and `Get-ADDomain`. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Listing the Active Directory Module Cmdlets | ||
|
|
||
| To get a list of all of the Active Directory module cmdlets, run | ||
|
|
||
| ```powershell | ||
| Get-Command -Module ActiveDirectory | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| ### Getting Started | ||
|
|
||
| Getting started with the Active Directory module for Windows PowerShell is as | ||
| easy as clicking the following shortcut: | ||
|
|
||
| Run the following command in any Windows PowerShell prompt to import the Active | ||
| Directory module: | ||
|
|
||
| ```powershell | ||
| Import-Module ActiveDirectory | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| ### Overview and Conceptual Topics | ||
|
|
||
| The first two of these topics offer a high level overview of the Active | ||
| Directory module and the Active Directory Provider. | ||
|
|
||
| - For a brief introduction to the Active Directory provider for Windows | ||
| PowerShell, see [ActiveDirectory](/powershell/module/activedirectory). | ||
| - The following topics are conceptual support topics for the Active Directory | ||
| module cmdlets. | ||
| - For an introduction to the **Identity** parameter, which is used by the | ||
| Active Directory module cmdlets to identify objects in the directory, see | ||
| [about_ActiveDirectory_Identity](about_ActiveDirectory_Identity.md). | ||
| - For an introduction to the **Filter** parameter which is used by Active | ||
| Directory module cmdlets to search for objects in the directory, see | ||
| [about_ActiveDirectory_Filter](about_ActiveDirectory_Filter.md). | ||
| - For an introduction to the .NET Framework-based object model implemented by | ||
| the Active Directory module, see | ||
| [about_ActiveDirectory_ObjectModel](about_ActiveDirectory_ObjectModel.md). |
