Configuring Security and Other Services
Testing Authentication Settings
If ZoneDirector was able to connect to the authentication server and retrieve the configured
groups/attributes, the information appears at the bottom of the page. The following is an
example of the message that will appear when ZoneDirector authenticates successfully with
the server:
Success! Groups associated with this user are "{group_name}". This
user will be assigned a role of {role}.
If the test was unsuccessful, there are three possible results (other than success) that will be
displayed to inform you if you have entered information incorrectly:
•
Admin invalid
•
User name or password invalid
•
Search filter syntax invalid (LDAP only)
These results can be used to troubleshoot the reasons for failure to authenticate users from an
AAA server through ZoneDirector.
