ABOUT THE WEB TELE PROCESS

OVERVIEW

Active Directory Object Attributes

There are several ways to report details/attributes from AD.  You may want a report of users with their org code, email address, and phone number.  To do this you can:
 

  1. Using ADUC you can create a query.  Go to the Saved Queries section of ADUC and create a new one.  You can use a custom search and build a condition list or even LDAP (more difficult because you have to know a bit more).  With this output you can right click and chose to export to a tab delimited file.  You may want the report to list additional details and you'll have the major ones but not all of them.  Note:  The query can be built using any available attribute but the report will only be able to list a small subset.
  2. Best: Many folks in WSG can run Powershell reports with whatever criteria is appropriate.
  3. Best: Talk to Ben about an existing report for regular, -D and -M accounts using Powershell.

In some cases the info returned will need to be converted to be readable.  Commonly the date/time stamps.  If so, use this since it will convert the date/time:

  • In Excel you can use the formula:  =IF(J2>0,J2/(8.64*10^11) - 109205,"")       Replace J2 with the corresponding cell. 

    • insert a column (to the left or right of lastlogon and lastlogontimestamp  columns 
    • select column  -- format cells -- change type to the last Time type (ie. 3/14/01 13:30)
    • copy in formula (above) and update column names (i.e lastlogon and lastlogontimestamp)
    • Drag down formula to end of sheet
    • Select column and copy then “paste special” selecting “values” (do this for each column to modify)
    • Erase original lastlogon and lastlogontimestamp columns that contain the scientific notation
  • In powershell use an expression in a Select-Object pipe (excerpt): 

@{n="lastLogonDate";e={If ($.lastLogonTimestamp -eq $null) {"Never"} ELSE {[datetime]::FromFileTime($.lastLogonTimestamp)}}}

ATTRIBUTE MAP (data dictionary)

User Objects

What data does all of the attributes contain?  Some of them are self-explanatory like displayName.  Most cannot be written directly because automation populates the details.  Here are the attributes that may not be self-explanatory:

  • altSecurityIdentities:  AKA 'AltSecID' is the attribute used to map a user PIV to the AD account.  This is automated based on specific criteria:

    • AD UPN before the @ is numeric
    • UPN before the @ is 10-digits
    • UPN after the @ is cbp.dhs.gov
    • DHSAttribute13 attribute is blank/null (if not null, automation assumes a non-CBP PIV and leaves AltSecID alone)
  • Company: The company attribute is written by Webtele. Written by svc-webtele-proc

  • Department:  The department description from Webtele. Written by svc-webtele-proc

  • The following attributes belong to DHS and should not be modified by CBP unless for the documented purpose:

    • DHSAttribute1 not documented

    • DHSAttribute2 not documented

    • DHSAttribute3 not documented

    • DHSAttribute4 not documented

    • DHSAttribute5 not documented

    • DHSAttribute6 not documented

    • DHSAttribute7 not documented

    • DHSAttribute8 not documented

    • DHSAttribute9 not documented

    • DHSAttribute10 not documented

    • DHSAttribute11 not documented

    • DHSAttribute12 not documented

    • DHSAttribute13:  used to denote the user's PIV user principal name (aka UPN).  The value found on the PIV/CAC user principal name.

      • It is not typically used unless the user holds a non-CBP PIV/CAC (i.e. DHS HQ, USCG). 
      • Using a CBP user's PIV UPN, while not required, will not cause any problems.
      • Populating this with the user's PIV UPN causes AltSecID automation to ignore the account. This can be useful when the user's AltSecID needs to be unique / manually populated.
    • DHSAttribute14 not documented

    • DHSAttribute15 not documented

    • DHSAttribute16 not documented

    • DHSAttribute17 not documented

    • DHSAttribute18 not documented

    • CDHSAttribute20: not documented

  • Extension Attributes

    • extensionAttribute1:  Employe Series Sailpoint is pushing this to AD at 3AM using AD\SVC-EDME-ICAM-USRMNT.
    • extensionAttribute2: ==Unused==
    • extensionAttribute3: Employee GRADE (i.e. GS level ) and pushed to AD via Sailpoint. Assigned 8/30/19. As of 10/1/19 Sailpoint is pushing this to AD at 3AM using AD\SVC-EDME-ICAM-USRMNT.
    • extensionAttribute4:  is the Organizational code from Webtele.  Everyone in AD should have one but some contractors do not because they are not adequately documented.  The first two numbers identify the office like Border Patrol, OFO, ES/OIT, etc. Written by svc-webtele-proc. Glen Corcoran BEMSD should have the org code definitions. The top level organizations are denoted by first 2 digits:
    ORG CODE SHORT TITLE LONG TITLE

    (Last confirmed 12/15/22 with Denise Brewer)

    This section expands org code a bit into office level organizations:

    • extensionAttribute5:  Supervisor Code Webtele updates this attribute (1-8) svc-webtele-proc (on all users). Webtele consumes from SAP BEAR
    • extensionAttribute6:  ==Unused==
    • extensionAttribute7:  A NULL or any other value will Synch to Azure\O365 Automatically for User objects

    A value of "o365nosync" will filter the user's identity from synching to the Azure AD (Office 365) cloud.  This value must be cleared if you wish to again sync the AD user identity to Office 365.

    • extensionAttribute8:  Requested by CBP email engineering August 2019. Utilized by the email creation script to assign a primary email address to the proper realm for new mailboxes. Valid entries CTR, GOV, MIL, OGA, or FSN
    • extensionAttribute9:  Denotes GOVERNMENT or CONTRACTOR. Updated by Webtele (svc-webtele-proc) "SAP BEAR feed" This attribute is used by dynamic distribution groups and Other System queries.
    • extensionAttribute10 is not documented but contains first.mi.last@dhs.gov . Only a fraction of users have this attribute. Appears unused since 2018.
    • extensionAttribute11 is to mark how and AD objects O365 mailbox should be provisioned: Calendar, Resource, Shared. Will be manually set by the TSD upon AD object creation. Once marked, ESG email automation will provision accordingly. [Requested by John Petz 1/22/19]
    • extensionAttribute12 tracks user mailbox migration state. This attribute is being updated by an Orchestrator automation that is monitoring the status of the mailbox copy and required post processing actions to execute after the copy is complete. [Requested by John Petz 1/22/19]
    • extensionAttribute13 contains the user's CanonicalName. Used for Exchange Query Based Distribution lists. Account SVC-EDME-EXCHAUTO updates this attribute. Orchestrator runbook EDME\Office 365\Exchange\Update EA13 Attribute. [Requested by John Petz 1/22/19]
    • extensionAttribute14 ==Unused== (Kellerman cleaned up pre EaaS info like "NWG-EXMB-A-027 SG1_DB12" on 5/27/20)

    • mail:  this is the primary SMTP address of the user. It is synchronized by EaaS. 
    • Manager: Since June 2019 the manager attribute is written from a Sailpoint database. The manager attribute is taken from various sources depending on the user (Tele for contractors, HRBE for feds).  AD\SVC-EDME-ICAM-USRMNT has been delegated to write this attribute. The manager attribute is a distinguished name of the user's manager.
    • mobile:  user's mobile telephone number from Webtele
