Hi ,

Can we integrate window AD with Splunk administration ??

OR can we integrate with TACAS and RADIUS for centralization user administraion ?

Our Splunk Enterprise is installed on Linux platform.

Aside, On splunk setting > accesscontrol

I can see ldap as a option but not with AD ?

Please help me with it.

What specifically do you mean by "user administration"?

Splunk can use LDAP to verify a user's credentials and to know the group(s) to which the user belongs. Those LDAP groups are then mapped to Splunk roles.

Yes, LDAP can be used with AD. In fact, in my experience only AD has been used.
