We’ve updated our baseline requirements for deploying AAD Connect, so I’ve updated the AAD Connect Network Communications Test to reflect those changes.
Key changes:
- We now allow you to configure AAD Connect using the Hybrid Identity Administrator role, so the tool now checks for it.
- We now require Windows Server 2016, so that has been noted in the tool.
- TLS 1.2 is now required.
We’ve provided a new cmdlet, Set-ADSYncToolsTls12, to help support configuring (though you can still use the registry or PowerShell to enable it as well).
You can get the updated script here: https://aka.ms/aadnetwork or by running Update-Script -Name AADConnect-CommunicationsTest.
