Field Possible value Description
Search Context 6 All characters except "
(quotes), not to exceed 127
characters
Sixth searchable path used to locate the user
when the user is trying to authenticate using
directory services. The path is also used to
search for a nesting LDAP group.
• Use NT Account Name Mapping (DOMAIN\username)—Select this check box to enable NT name
mapping. This field enables users to log in by using the NT domain\username format. The Onboard
Administrator may be optionally configured to search the Directory Server Global Catalog and locate
the authenticated user information and associated authorized groups. The standard Directory Server
GC SSL Port is 3269. This field is optional, and if left blank, the global catalog is not used.
IMPORTANT: If NT Account Name Mapping is used with the global catalog, and the search
context is not restrictive enough, or the domain name is not specified, the Onboard Administrator
may associate the authenticated user with a user account that has the same name in a different
domain. The authenticated user would then receive the authorization of the user in the other
domain. To avoid ambiguity when logging on LDAP user, select search contexts or provide the
domain name.
NOTE: If NT Account Name Mapping is used with the global catalog, and cannot be resolved
to a single user, then the user is not authorized to access the Onboard Administrator. This may
occur with search contexts that are not restrictive enough and if multiple accounts with the same
name exist in different domains. To avoid ambiguity, select search contexts.
NOTE: Password rules enforced on LDAP servers might be different than password rules
enforced for local user accounts. Make sure both sets of rules adhere to security policies.

Onboard Administrator Network Settings screen
To modify network settings for all the Onboard Administrator modules in the selected enclosures, use the
Onboard Administrator Network Settings IPv4 or IPv6 screens. Settings for Standby Onboard Administrator
modules only appear if the modules are present. Each screen allows you to configure network settings for the
Active Onboard Administrator and the Standby Onboard Administrator. You can change the following
settings:
• Select the DHCP service to assign IP settings
• Enable Dynamic DNS, which enables you to use a host name for the Onboard Administrator. The host
name is registered with DNS to maintain the association with the current dynamically assigned IP
address.
• Manually assign a static IP address
The IPv4 screen allows you to enable either dynamically assigned IP addresses obtained from a DHCP server
or static IP addresses that you specify manually. The IPv6 screen allows you to enable both kinds of addresses
along with SLAAC.
