LDAP
Your Connect IT 16/48 device supports LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol), a protocol used
for directory information services over an IP network. LDAP can be used with your Connect IT 16/48
device for centralized authentication and authorization management for users who connect to the
device. With LDAP support, the Connect IT 16/48 device acts as an LDAP client, which sends user
credentials and connection parameters to an LDAP server. The LDAP server then authenticates the
LDAP client requests and sends back a response message to the device.
When you are using LDAP authentication, you can have both local users and LDAP users able to log in
to the device. To use LDAP authentication, you must set up a LDAP server that is accessible by the
Connect IT 16/48 device prior to configuration. The process of setting up a LDAP server varies by the
server environment.
