LDAP Access
The CAT5 8-PORT/16-PORT IP-KVM uses LDAP only for authentication (password
verification). User privileges and private settings are still stored locally at the CAT5
8-PORT/16-PORT IP-KVM. That's why a user account has to be created on the CAT5
8-PORT/16-PORT IP-KVM before this user can login via LDAP. Also, all privilege
configurations have to be done within the CAT5 8-PORT/16-PORT IP-KVM user
management.
In order to configure the LDAP access, you can set the following options:
 SMTP Logging enabled
This allows the CAT5 8-PORT/16-PORT IP-KVM is able to send event e-mails to
the specified e-mail address. These mails contain the same description strings as
the internal log file, and the mail subject will contain the event group of the log
event. In order to use SMTP Logging, tick the SMTP Logging Enabled checkbox,
enter the SMTP Server (<server IP>: <port>), Receiver Email Address, and
Sender Email Address, then click the Apply button to save your changes.
 Base DN of User LDAP Server
Here you specify the distinguished name (DN) where the directory tree starts in
the user LDAP server. E.g.: dc=test,dc=domain,dc=com
 Type of external LDAP Server
With this option you set the type of the external LDAP server. This is necessary
since some server types require special handling. Additionally, the default values
for the LDAP scheme are set appropriately. You can choose between a Generic
LDAP Server, a Novell Directory Service and a Microsoft Active Directory. If you
have neither a Novell Directory Service nor a Microsoft Active Directory then
choose a Generic LDAP Server and edit the LDAP scheme used (see below).
 Name of login-name attribute
This is the name of the attribute containing the unique login name of a user. To
use the default leave this field empty. The default depends on the selected LDAP
server type.
 Name of user-entry object class
This is the object class that identifies a user in the LDAP directory. To use the
default leave this field empty. The default depends on the selected LDAP server
type.
 User search subfilter
