Discover how to download, install, and configure AD Connect; to modify AD Connect configuration sync settings; and to modify an AD Connect configuration to use password writeback. Examine how to configure seamless SSO and enable Azure AD combined registration. Configure MFA settings; turn on and test MFA for an Azure AD user; configure MFA blocking and unblocking; specify trusted IPs for MFA exclusion, and enable MFA for administrator accounts. Also, learn how to use the Microsoft Authenticator App and MFA to log in, and how to configure an Azure AD access review. The exercise involves planning Azure AD Connect.
