Registering LDAP servers

You must have a registered LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) server to use Policy
Assignment Rules, to enable dynamically assigned permission sets, and to enable Active Directory
User Login.
Task
For option definitions, click ? in the interface.
1 Select Menu | Configuration | Registered Servers, then click New Server.

2
details, then click Next.
3 Choose whether you are registering an OpenLDAP or Active Directory server in the LDAP server type list.
The rest of these instructions will assume an Active Directory server is
being configured. OpenLDAP-specific information is included where
required.
4 Choose if you are specifying a Domain name or a specific server name in the Server name section.
Use DNS-style domain names (e.g. internaldomain.com) and fully-qualified domain names or IP
addresses for servers. (e.g. server1.internaldomain.com or 192.168.75.101)
Using domain names gives fail-over support, and allows you to choose only servers from a specific
site if desired.
OpenLDAP servers can only use server names. They cannot be specified
by domain.
When choosing Manual sitelist import, it is possible to cause older versions of
McAfee Agent (version 4.0 and earlier) to be unable to contact their Agent
Handler. This may happen when
• Transferring systems from this McAfee ePO server to the registered
McAfee ePO server
• and an Agent Handler name appears alpha-numerically earlier than
the ePO Server name in the supplied sitelist
• and the older Agents use that Agent Handler
