LDAP user authentication
Active Directory/LDAP integration enables Application Security to authorize users based on their existing corporate credentials. In addition, assignment by group or organizational unit enables Application Security to take advantage of the existing joiners/leavers processes. A new person who joins a group automatically has access to Application Security. A person who leaves a group automatically loses access.
The topics in this section provide information about user authentication in Application Security and configuring LDAP authentication and LDAP server options.
OpenText recommends that, before you configure LDAP servers, you create at least one local Administrator account in case you encounter problems with your LDAP server.
Although OpenText supports the use of multiple LDAP servers, it does not support the use of multiple LDAP servers behind a load balancer, unless those servers are identical.
