To create a domain:
1. Select Users > Domains from the menu. The Domains screen displays. Figure 9-1 shows the
UTM’s default domain—geardomain—and, as an example, another domain in the List of
Domains table.
The List of Domains table displays the domains with the following fields:
• Checkbox. Allows you to select the domain in the table.
• Domain Name. The name of the domain. The default domain name (geardomain) is
appended by an asterisk.
• Authentication Type. The authentication method that is assigned to the domain.
• Portal Layout Name. The SSL portal layout that is assigned to the domain.
• Action. The Edit table button that provides access to the Edit Domain screen.
LDAP A network-validated domain-based authentication method that functions with a
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) authentication server. LDAP is a
standard for querying and updating a directory. Because LDAP supports a multilevel
hierarchy (for example, groups or organizational units), this information can be
queried to provide specific group policies or bookmarks based on LDAP attributes.
