LDAP Configuration dialog box
How do I get to this dialog box?
From the Administrative Console
-
Click the Authentication side tab.
-
From the Authentication system list, choose LDAP and then click Configure.
Use the LDAP Configuration dialog box to set up your Reflection X domain for LDAP authentication. The options are:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| LDAP host | The host the LDAP server is running on. |
| LDAP port | The port the LDAP service is listening on. |
| Use anonymous SSL | Allows communication with the LDAP server to be encrypted. The anonymous SSL option supports standard SSL ciphers but does not verify the authenticity of the LDAP server's certificate. |
| Search base | The area in the directory tree where the users reside. This is the location in the directory from which the LDAP search begins. |
| DN Schema | The distinguished name schema (typically 'distinguishedName'). An LDAP entry is referenced by a distinguished name that uniquely identifies the entry in the directory. It is typically composed of several relative distinguished names (RDN) separated by commas. |
| UID attribute | The unique or user id attribute (for most LDAP users, this is uid. For Microsoft Active Directory users, this is 'sAMAccountName'). |
| Perform authenticated search | Allows you to enter credentials for a user with search permissions. This is used when the directory service does not allow anonymous searching. |
| User DN | The distinguished name of a user with permissions to search the directory service. |
| Password | The password for the distinguished name that you entered in User DN. |
