LDAP Configuration — Active Directory

To allow authentication and authorization for the B064-Series KVM Switch via LDAP or LDAPS, the Active Directory’s LDAP Schema must be
extended so that an extended attribute name for the B064-Series KVM Switch – userprofile – is added as an optional attribute to the person class.
Authentication refers to determining the authenticity of the person logging in.

Authorization refers to assigning permission to use the device’s various features.

In order to configure the LDAP server, you will have to complete the following procedures: 1) Install the Windows 2003 Support Tools; 2) Install
the Active Directory Schema Snap-in; and 3) Extend and Update the Active Directory Schema.
