LDAP Settings
To allow authentication and authorization for the CN8000 via LDAP / LDAPS,
refer to the information in the table, below:
Item Action
Enable Put a check in the Enable checkbox to allow LDAP / LDAPS
authentication and authorization.
LDAP / LDAPS Click a radio button to specify whether to use LDAP or LDAPS.
Enable Authorization Select whether to enable Enable Authorization, or not.
1. If enabled (the box is checked), the LDAP / LDAPS server
directly returns a ‘permission’ attribute and authorization for
the user that is logging in. With this selection the LDAP
schema must be extended. See LDAP Server Configura-
tion, page 137, for details.
2. If not enabled (no check in the box), the result the server
returns indicates whether the user that is logging in belongs
to the ‘CN8000 Admin Group’. If the result is ‘yes’ the user
has full access rights; if the result is ‘no’, the user only has
limited access rights.
Note: Consult the LDAP / LDAPS administrator to
ascertain whether to enable the Enable Authorization
function, or not.
