LDAP Search parameters
On the LDAP Search page, you can configure the parameters used when searching for LDAP
directory service users.
Use the Search DN field to define an administrator-level user that the appliance uses to log into the
directory service. Once the appliance is authenticated, the directory service grants it access to the
directory to perform the user authentication queries specified on the LDAP Query page. The default
values are cn=Administrator, cn=Users, dc=yourDomainName and dc=com and may be modified.
For example, to define an administrator Distinguished Name (DN) for test.view.com, type
cn=Administrator, cn=Users, dc=test, dc=view, and dc=com. Each Search DN value must be
separated by a comma.
