Configuring an eDirectory Server
6.3.4 Setting up the Management Blade
Open the BX900 MMB WebUI in advanced mode and navigate to
Information/Operation → User Management → Global Users. The following screenshot shows an example of the
settings required for communication with an eDirectory Server:
1. Enable LDAP: Enables LDAP authentication.
2. Enable LDAP SSL: Enables SSL communication between the MMB and the eDirectory Server.
(The MMB does not need a certificate and does not check the certificate delivered by the LDAP server.)
3. Disable Local Login: Disables the option of logging in without LDAP authentication.
4. Always Use SSL Login: Enables only SSL logins at the MMB WebUI. (This option will be enabled automatically,
LDAP requires HTTPS to be enabled.)
5. Directory Server Type: Sets the LDAP Server type (eDirectory).
6. LDAP Server: IP address of the LDAP Server.
7. Domain Name: Name of the domain (e.g. testdomain3.local).
8. Base DN: Assigned automatically.
9. Groups Directory As Sub-Tree From Base DN: Not required.
10. Dept. Name: Name of the department.
11. LDAP Auth. User Name: Management account of the eDirectory Server in the notation "cn=Manager,dc=
testdomain3,dc=local".
12. LDAP Auth. User Password: Password of the manager account.
