15.4.6 Configuring the LDAP Search Filter Attribute

When the LDAP-based login username-password authentication succeeds, the device
searches the LDAP server for all groups of which the user is a member. The LDAP query is
based on the following LDAP data structure:

Search base object (distinguished name or DN, e.g.,
"ou=ABC,dc=corp,dc=abc,dc=com"): The DN defines the location in the directory
from which the LDAP search begins and is configured in 'Configuring LDAP DNs
(Base Paths) per LDAP Server' on page 248.

Filter (e.g., "(&(objectClass=person)(sAMAccountName=johnd))"): This filters the
search in the subtree to include only the login username (and excludes others). This is
configured by the 'LDAP Authentication Filter' parameter, as described in the following
procedure. You can use the dollar ($) sign to represent the username. For example,
Version 7.2
Defines an index number for the new table row.
Note: Each row must be configured with a unique index.
Defines the full path (DN) to the objects in the AD where the
query is done.
The valid value is a string of up to 256 characters.
For example: OU=NY,DC=OCSR2,DC=local. In this example,
the DN path is defined by the LDAP names, OU
(organizational unit) and DC (domain component).
