There are lots of different tools out there to manage Active Directory objects. In this chapter, we looked into tools built by Microsoft to manage Active Directory objects. Each and every tool has different characteristics, and we learned how we can use them to add, edit, and remove Active Directory objects effectively. We also learned how we can use different tools and technologies to search for specific Active Directory objects and attribute values.

In the next chapter, we will dive deep into Active Directory objects and attributes. In there, we will evaluate different types of objects and their roles in an Active Directory environment.
