Directory Settings Screen; Uploading A Certificate - HP Integrity Superdome 2 User Manual

Directory Settings screen

LDAP is a protocol for accessing information directories. While LDAP is based on the X.500
standard, it is significantly simpler. LDAP also supports TCP/IP and is an open protocol.
Use the Directory Settings screen to set directory access for the now selected enclosure.

Uploading a certificate

You are not required to upload domain controller certificates. Superdome 2 Onboard Administrator
accepts multiple domain controller certificates, which can be uploaded using the Certificate Upload
tab under Directory Settings.
To upload a certificate:
1. Get the certificate from the domain controller by opening a browser and entering the following
address:
https://<domain controller>:636
(where domain controller is the IP address for your network domain controller).
2. When prompted to accept a certificate, click View Certificate.
3. Click the Details tab, and then click the Copy to File button.
4. From the list of export options, select Base-64 encoded x.509 (.CER).
5. Provide a name and location for the file, and finish the Upload a Certificate Wizard.
6. Locate the exported certificate file, and then rename it with a .txt extension (for example,
dccert.txt).
7. Open the file in a text editor, and copy the entire contents to the clipboard. The following is
an example of an exported certificate file:
