Perform this task to synchronize OU configuration information from authentication servers after authentication servers are configured. An OU is a container that you use to organize objects, such as user accounts, groups, computers, printers, applications, files, and other OUs.
On Microsoft AD servers, OUs are used to organize domain users, domain user groups, and LDAP authentication administrators.
On generic LDAP servers, OUs are used to organize LDAP users, LDAP user groups, and LDAP authentication administrators.
After you synchronize OU configurations from authentication servers to Space Console, user accounts on the authentication servers are synchronized. To use the user accounts to log in to teacher or student clients or campus space in education scenario, you must first change the type of the users to Teaching Staff or Student. For more information about how to change the user type, see the guide for AD users, AD user groups, LDAP users, or LDAP user groups.
