Active Directory / Ldap - ZyXEL Communications NXC5200 User Manual

Bind DN
A bind DN is used to authenticate with an LDAP/AD server. For example a bind DN
of cn=zyAdmin allows the NXC to log into the LDAP/AD server using the user name
of zyAdmin. The bind DN is used in conjunction with a bind password. When a bind
DN is not specified, the NXC will try to log in as an anonymous user. If the bind
password is incorrect, the login will fail.

30.2 Active Directory / LDAP

Use the Active Directory or LDAP screen to manage the list of AD or LDAP
servers the NXC can use in authenticating users.
Note: Both the Active Directory and LDAP screens, while on separate tabs, are
identical in configuration. This section applies to both equally.
Click Configuration > Object > AAA Server > Active Directory/LDAP to
display the Active Directory / LDAP screen.
