LDAP is Highly Complex
Caution LDAP-related features of Cisco DMS are meant for use by qualified and experienced administrators of
Microsoft Active Directory. Unless you are an Active Directory and LDAP expert, we recommend that you use
embedded authentication.
Plan Ahead
•
Install and configure Active Directory and Internet Information Services (IIS) before you try to
configure LDAP authentication mode or federation mode in DMS-Admin.
Tip We support IIS 6 on Windows Server 2003.
•
Make sure that you have generated or imported certificates as necessary and activated SSL on the
Active Directory server before you try to configure SSL encryption.
