Network and Firewall Configuration for Active Directory (UMROOT)

Below is a comprehensive list of the servers, including specific ports, which must be open in your firewall in order to access Active Directory (UMROOT) servers and the test forest servers. For the similarities and differences between the production (UMROOT) and test forests, see Active Directory Test ForestTo get access to the test forest, submit a request to the ITS Service Center.

Easiest Firewall Option—Use IP Address Ranges

The easiest option for configuring firewalls to allow your computers to access Active Directory (UMROOT) is to open your firewall to the following networks on all ports:

  • 141.211.91.0/26
  • 141.211.22.32/28 
  • 141.211.142.48/28
  • 141.213.136.128/27
  • 141.215.69.0/24

Server Names and Addresses for UMROOT

If you must configure your firewall more narrowly, you can use the server names and IP addresses listed below. Be aware, though, that you will need to make updates should any of these change in the future.

UMROOT Read/Write Domain Controllers, Global Catalogs

It is best to use the alias: adsroot.itcs.umich.edu 

The individual server names and addresses are:

  • adprod-dc-m1.adsroot.itcs.umich.edu — 141.211.91.41
  • adprod-dc-m2.adsroot.itcs.umich.edu — 141.211.91.42
  • adprod-dc-s1.adsroot.itcs.umich.edu — 141.211.142.52
  • adprod-dc-n1.adsroot.itcs.umich.edu — 141.213.136.143
  • adprod-dc-n2.adsroot.itcs.umich.edu — 141.213.136.144
  • adprod-dc-d1.adsroot.itcs.umich.edu — 141.215.69.206
  • adprod-dc-d2.adsroot.itcs.umich.edu — 141.215.69.207
  • adprod-dc-dr.adsroot.itcs.umich.edu — 141.211.22.36

Firewalling individual ports is strongly discouraged. If you proceed, anyway, the domain controllers use the following ports on campus, and your network will need to be open to all of them. You may also need RPC ports open (1024 > 65536). For a detailed discussion of the network port requirements for Windows, see Service overview and network port requirements for Windows (Microsoft Knowledgebase)

UMROOT WINS Servers

  • 141.211.76.103
  • 141.211.21.102

UM-Ann Arbor DNS Servers

Please use the UM-Ann Arbor DNS servers if possible, rather than UMROOT DNS servers.

  • 10.10.10.10
  • 10.10.5.5

UMROOT DNS Servers (use only if no alternative)

Use the UMROOT DNS servers in place of the campus DNS servers only if you have no alternative.

  • rdsl02.adsroot.itcs.umich.edu — 141.211.21.98

KMS Servers

Open TCP/1688 from clients/servers to the KMS servers.

It is best to use the CNAME rather than individual IP addresses for configuration:

  • CNAME: mskms.umich.edu
  • 141.211.21.99
  • 141.211.76.100
