Specifying the LDAP server type
The device supports LDAP servers by IBM, Microsoft, and Sun.
To specify the type of the LDAP server:
Step Command
Remarks
1.
Enter system view.
system-view
N/A
2.
Enter LDAP scheme view.
ldap scheme ldap-scheme-name N/A
3.
Specify the LDAP server type. server-type { ibm | microsoft |
sun }
Optional.
The default setting is microsoft.
Setting the LDAP server timeout period
If the device sends a bind or search request to an LDAP server but receives no response from the server
within the LDAP server timeout period, the device considers that the authentication or authorization
request has timed out and tries the backup authentication or authorization method, if any. If no backup
method is configured, the device considers the authentication or authorization attempt fails.
To set the LDAP server timeout period:
Step Command
Remarks
1.
Enter system view.
system-view
N/A
2.
Enter LDAP scheme view.
ldap scheme ldap-scheme-name N/A
3.
Set the LDAP server timeout
period.
server-timeout time-interval
Optional.
10 seconds by default
Configuring administrator attributes
To configure the administrator DN and password for binding with the LDAP server during LDAP
authentication:
Step Command
Remarks
1.
Enter system view.
system-view
N/A
2.
Enter LDAP scheme view.
ldap scheme ldap-scheme-name N/A
3.
Specify the administrator DN. login-dn dn-string
Not specified by default.
4.
Configure the administrator
password.
login-password [ ciper | simple ]
password
Not specified by default.
NOTE:
The administrator DN specified on the device must be consistent with that on the LDAP server.
Configuring LDAP user attributes
To authenticate a user, an LDAP client must establish a connection to the LDAP server, obtain the user DN,
and use the user DN and the user's password to bind with the LDAP server. According to the LDAP DN
search mechanism, an LDAP client sends search requests to the server based on a search policy that is
determined by the LDAP user attributes of the LDAP client.
