extended. See “LDAP Server Configuration” on page 97, for details.
• Without schema - Only the Usernames used on the KVM switch are matched to the names on the
LDAP / LDAPS server. User privileges are the same as the ones configured on the switch.
• Without schema - Only Groups in AD are matched. User privileges are the ones configured for the
groups he belongs to on the switch.

dials back to the selected option.
