Which two steps are necessary to prepare the Active Directory domain for a JIMS installation?

The correct answers are A and D. Preparing Active Directory for JIMS requires creating limited-permission service accounts and assigning those accounts to the required Active Directory groups. Juniper’s JIMS deployment guidance states that you must create service accounts so JIMS can read from the defined directory services and identity producers; if PC probing is used, a service account is also required for that function. The same JIMS documentation includes a section named Configure Limited-Permission User Accounts, followed by Add Limited Permission User Accounts to Active Directory Groups.

Option A is correct because the JIMS preparation workflow commonly uses limited-permission accounts for event log access and PC probe access. Juniper identifies accounts such as JIMS-EventLogRemoteAccess and JIMS-PC-Probe in the Active Directory group-membership procedure. Option D is correct because those limited accounts must be added to the proper AD groups, including Event Log Readers and the groups required for remote management or PC probe operation.

Option B is wrong because the tested preparation requirement is not three limited-access accounts. Option C is wrong because JIMS should not be prepared by adding a broad full-access account; the course objective is least-privilege identity collection.
