LDAP configuration and Microsoft's Active Directory

LDAP provides user authentication and authorization using Microsoft's Active Directory service in
conjunction with LDAP on the switch. The following are restrictions when using LDAP:
In Fabric OS 6.x there will be no password change through Active Directory.
There is no automatic migration of newly created users from local switch database to Active Directory.
This is a manual process explained later.
LDAP authentication is used on the local switch only and not for the entire fabric.
Roles for users can be added through the Microsoft Management Console. Groups created in Active
Directory must correspond directly to the RBAC user roles on the switch. Role assignments can be achieved
by including the user in the respective group. A user can be assigned to multiple groups like Switch Admin
and Security Admin. For more information on RBAC roles, see
on page 56.
NOTE:
www.microsoft.com. Confer with your network administrator prior to configuration for any special
needs your network environment may have.
All instructions involving Microsoft's Active Directory can be obtained from
step 5
