Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory allows you to configure trust relationships

Description

Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory allows you to configure trust relationships. For example, you can establish a trust between your Managed Microsoft AD directory, and your existing self-managed Microsoft Active Directory. This would allow you to provide users and groups access to resources in either domain, with a single set of credentials.

This action initiates the creation of the Amazon Web Services side of a trust relationship between an Managed Microsoft AD directory and an external domain. You can create either a forest trust or an external trust.

Usage

directoryservice_create_trust(DirectoryId, RemoteDomainName,
  TrustPassword, TrustDirection, TrustType, ConditionalForwarderIpAddrs,
  ConditionalForwarderIpv6Addrs, SelectiveAuth)

Arguments

  • DirectoryId

    [required] The Directory ID of the Managed Microsoft AD directory for which to establish the trust relationship.

  • RemoteDomainName

    [required] The Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the external domain for which to create the trust relationship.

  • TrustPassword

    [required] The trust password. The trust password must be the same password that was used when creating the trust relationship on the external domain.

  • TrustDirection

    [required] The direction of the trust relationship.

  • TrustType

    The trust relationship type. Forest is the default.

  • ConditionalForwarderIpAddrs
