LDAP Label assigned to computers using Department attribute in LDAP. What search filter should I use?

What am I trying to do: Trying to do a targeted deployment by using the AD department attribute in an LDAP label.

Current configuration:

Machine

Base DN: OU=Sunnyvale,DC=Usa,DC=Arm,DC=Com

Search Filter: ????

 

Is this possible? Thank you for your support.

Are your machines in OUs that are based on labels? If so, then here's the search filter we use:

(&(name=KBOX_COMPUTER_NAME)(distinguishedName=CN=KBOX_COMPUTER_NAME,OU=Biology,OU=Departments,OU=GPO Exceptions,DC=FAS,DC=LCL))

This is for the Biology department, you would need to adjust the OU segments to match your AD structure.
