Configuring LDAP Authentication
When the RADIUS Data Source is set to use an external LDAP server (see
Server" on page
250), the LDAP screen is used to configure the properties of the external LDAP server.
To configure the LDAP server:
1 Select System Configuration > User Authentication > RADIUS Server > LDAP from the menu tree.
NOTE
For the onboard RADIUS server to work with Windows Active Directory or open LDAP as the database,
the user has to be present in a group within the organizational unit. The same group must be present within the
onboard RADIUS server's database. The group configured within the onboard RADIUS server is used for group
policy configuration to support a new Time Based Rule restriction feature.
NOTE
The LDAP screen displays with unfamiliar alphanumeric characters (if new to LDAP configuration).
Extreme Networks recommends only qualified administrators change the default values within the LDAP screen.
