LDAP

Your Connect IT Mini 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 Mini device

for centralized authentication and authorization management for users who connect to the device.

With LDAP support, the Connect IT Mini 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 Mini device prior to configuration. The process of setting up a LDAP server varies by the

server environment.
