Introduction

UserManagement configuration

xConfiguration UserManagement LDAP Mode

The video system supports the use of an LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) server
as a central place to store and validate user names and passwords. Use this setting to config-
ure whether or not to use LDAP authentication. Our implementation is tested for the Microsoft
Active Directory (AD) service.
Requires user role: ADMIN
Default value: Off
USAGE:
xConfiguration UserManagement LDAP Mode:
where
: Off/On
Mode
Off: LDAP authentication is not allowed.
On: For client certificate verification to work when LDAP authentication is enabled, the
codec requires a CA (Certificate Authority) certificate, and the user must have a Client
Certificate that matches their user distinguishing name (DN) in the active directory (AD).

xConfiguration UserManagement LDAP Server Address

Set the IP address or hostname of the LDAP server.
Requires user role: ADMIN
Default value: ""
USAGE:
xConfiguration UserManagement LDAP Server Address: "Address"
where
: String (0, 255)
Address
A valid IPv4 address, IPv6 address or hostname.

xConfiguration UserManagement LDAP Server Port:
where
: Integer (0..65535)

The LDAP server port number.

xConfiguration UserManagement LDAP Encryption

Define how to secure the communication between the video system and the LDAP server. You
can override the port number by using the UserManagement LDAP Server Port setting.
Requires user role: ADMIN
Default value: LDAPS
USAGE:
xConfiguration UserManagement LDAP Encryption:
where
: LDAPS/None/STARTTLS
Encryption
LDAPS: Connect to the LDAP server on port 636 over TLS (Transport Layer Security).
None: Connect to LDAP server on port 389 with no encryption.
STARTTLS: Connect to LDAP server on port 389, then send STARTTLS to enable TLS
