CSAs Role in AFNetOps Account/Network Management User accounts will migrate into the AFNet User accounts management process will change NCC’s no longer create user accounts—AFDS is authority ESD will create, modify, delete accounts CSAs will have limited DRA responsibility/access Core network services will migrate into the AFNet Exchange/E-Mail Services Messaging Services SharePoint Services Web Services Network drives will remain the same Mapping will be copied during migration of local accounts Servers/SAN will migrate to AFNet at later date
