In connector migration, the Windows connector for Workspace ONE Access is installed on a Windows machine by providing the configuration file that is generated from an external or embedded Linux connector.

After the external or embedded Linux connector is migrated, the Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) and LDAP directories on the Linux connector are migrated to Windows. The IWA active directories are supported only on external Windows connectors.

  • The supported JRE version is between 8 update 181 to 8 update 251.
  • The supported .NET framework version is 4.6.0.
  • The supported Windows Server versions are 2012 R2, 2016, and 2019.
  • A unique Windows system is required for the migration and it must be connected to a domain server.
