vCenter Chargeback User Authentication

After a user is created, you can log in to the application using the credentials of this user.
You can log in as either a Local user or a LDAP user. If you are logging in as a LDAP user, you must provide
the login credentials defined in the Windows Active Directory. The LDAP user login name can be the
samAccountName or the FQDN. Although you can create a user of the type LDAP group, you cannot log in
to the application as an LDAP group.
If an LDAP group is added to the application, you can log in as an LDAP user belonging to that group. This
user will have the same roles and privileges as set on the LDAP group. If this LDAP user is not already added
to the application, the same would be done when the user logs in.
