An advanced, hierarchical directory service that comes with Windows 2000 servers. It is LDAP compliant and built on the Internet's Domain Naming System (DNS). Workgroups are given domain names, just like Web sites, and any LDAP-compliant client (Windows, Mac, Unix, etc.) can gain access to it.

Active Directory can function in a heterogeneous, enterprise network and encompass other directories including NDS and NIS+. Cisco and other popular devices support Active Directory in its IOS router operating system.

You can also check below mentioned link to setup Active Directory on standalone computer:-
