Adding a new second domain in vSphere 6.7

I've been tasked with adding our new domain (it will eventually be our primary domain) as an Identity source in our vSphere Client. We are running a virtual appliance and not on a windows server on v. 6.7. I've looked at the documentation and got confused a bit as I would like to mirror the original domains setup which is (Active Directory (Integrated Windows Authentication)). Does anyone have any Guidance on where I need to start? If additional details are needed just let me know.

You can only have one Integrated Windows Authentication as it uses the domain the appliance is a part of.

You can add other domains with Active Directory over LDAP.

Note that IWA isn't recommended anymore since Microsoft enforces LDAPS. It is best practice and more secure to use Active Directory over LDAPS.
