Using LDAP+GSSAPI

Note: This is available only in select printer models.
Some administrators prefer authenticating to an LDAP server using Generic Security Services Application Programming
Interface (GSSAPI) instead of simple LDAP authentication because the transmission is always secure. Instead of
authenticating directly with the LDAP server, the user will first authenticate with a Kerberos server to obtain a Kerberos
"ticket." This ticket is then presented to the LDAP server using the GSSAPI protocol for access. LDAP+GSSAPI is typically
used for networks running Active Directory.
Notes:
• LDAP+GSSAPI requires that Kerberos 5 also be configured.
•
Supported devices can store a maximum of five unique LDAP+GSSAPI configurations. Each configuration must
have a unique name.
• As with any form of authentication that relies on an external server, users will not be able to access protected
device functions if an outage prevents the printer from communicating with the authenticating server.
•
To help prevent unauthorized access, users are encouraged to securely end each session by selecting Log out on
the printer control panel.
