Authentication
The J2000 must authenticate to access the LDAP directory. The authentication type is the user name and password
(UsernameAndPassword). The user name and password are used to bind to the LDAP server.
Search Settings
Search settings provides the following fields for looking up information in the user directory:
NOTE: Search setting fields are case-sensitive.
Base Distinguished Names—The starting point for LDAP search of user accounts.
•
Example: OU=J2000, DC=MyCompany, DC=com
•
Groups Attributes—The LDAP attribute used by the directory instance to represent the groups to which a user
account belongs. The group specified is used for mapping to the roles assigned in the Remote Role Mapping field.
Example: memberOf
•
Username Attribute—The LDAP attribute used by the directory instance to represent a user's name.
Example: sAMAccountName
Remote Role Mapping
LDAP users are assigned to roles by an LDAP lookup. The Groups attribute for the user being authenticated is searched
for a match for role assignment.
Service Addresses
The service addresses for one or more LDAP services are required when LDAP authentication is enabled. Addresses are
entered in URL form, and can be in Lightweight Directory Application Protocol (LDAP) or Secure LDAP (LDAPS) - for
example, ldaps://DC-Alpha.MyCompany.com:636.
Groups must be expressed with the full Common Name notation - for example, CN=J2000-
Admin,OU=J2000,DC=MyCompany,DC=com.
