3.2.3 Initialization

In addition to the initialization required for the Group Policy Protocol, the client invokes the task "Initialize an ADConnection", as defined in [MS-ADTS] section 7.6.1.1, with the following parameters:

  • TaskInputTargetName: NULL

  • TaskInputPortNumber: 389

Store the new TaskReturnADConnection returned from the task as the AD Connection Handle ADM element.

If the task returns failure and it is the first iteration, repeat from the beginning of the initialization. Otherwise, policy application MUST be terminated and an event SHOULD<16> be logged using an implementation-specific mechanism.
