LDAP directory – configuration example
Filter format
A filter consists of one or more criteria. A criterion defines the LDAP attribute in which the
entered string is to be searched for, e.g. sn=%. The percent sign (%) is a placeholder for the user
input.
Operators
Following operators can be used to create filters:
Operator
=
!=
>=
<=
~
*
Multiple criteria can be connected with logical AND (&) and/or OR operators (|). The logical oper-
ators "&" and "|" are placed in front of the criteria. The criterion must be placed in brackets and
the whole expression must be bracketed again. AND and OR operations can also be combined.
Examples
AND operation: (&(givenName=%)(mail=%))
OR operation:
Combined
operation:
Special characters
It is also possible to find entries containing special characters. If you want to compare these char-
acters within an attribute string use backslash (\) and a 2-digit hex ASCII code as follows:
Special character
