AD-TIER

View in Gitea

Synopsis: Imports GPO policies and creates the OU structure for deploying the AD Tiering model.

This script was created to simplify and speed up building the necessary Organizational Unit structure and security groups in Active Directory, and importing pre-prepared GPO policies.

The script only prepares the structure and imports the GPOs — it makes no changes that would affect the client's environment.

Features

  • Optional creation of the Organizational Unit structure and the required security groups — this step can be skipped, in which case the script asks for the names of existing security groups to use in the GPO policies.
  • Downloads and extracts a zip package containing the individual GPO policies and migration tables.
  • Imports the GPO policies into the client's environment — during import you can choose the name of each policy.

Local administrators removed by default

By default, the GPO policy for workstations removes all local administrators on workstations. If users need to remain local administrators on workstations, the GPO policy must be edited before it is applied.
