What is Identity Sharing?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Identity Sharing Best Practice -  In environments that use many Security Gateways and AD Query, we recommend that you set only one Security Gateway to acquire identities from a given Active Directory domain controller for each physical site. If more than one Security Gateway gets identities from the same AD server, the AD server can become overloaded with WMI queries. Set these options on the  Identity Awareness  >   page of the Security Gateway object: One Security Gateway to  share  identities with other Security Gateways. This is the Security Gateway that gets identities from a given domain controller. All other Security Gateways to  get  identities from the Security Gateway that acquires identities from the given domain controller.
