The following steps should be done in order to let the LDAP module access the AD server when Windows Firewall is turned on.

1. Open the Windows Firewall.
    
2. Make sure that Firewall is activated and that exceptions are allowed.
   
3. Switch to the Exceptions tab.
    
4. Click the Add Port button.
    
5. Specify the name of the exception (for example LDAP), port number (389) and protocol to be used (TCP).
   
6. Click OK.
    
7. The newly created exception should be activated by default.

With this setup, the LDAP module can access the AD server and query the directory for users and roles.
