Several command-line tools can be used for monitoring Active Directory, including dcdiag, which assesses the health of Domain Controllers; repadmin, which checks the replication status between domain controllers; and nltest, which tests network connectivity and trust relationships. Additionally, Get-ADUser and Get-ADGroup PowerShell cmdlets can provide insights into user and group information. These tools help administrators diagnose issues and ensure the integrity of the Active Directory environment.
