Managing LDAP macros using the CLI
You can create your own macros (or variables), to allow you to retrieve data from
the LDAP database. You can then map the variable to an LDAP user attribute in
order to create user-specific links on the portal Home tab. When the client
successfully logs on, the variable expands to the value retrieved from the LDAP or
Active Directory user record. For more information about using macros in portal
links, see “Macros” on page 395.
To configure LDAP macros, use the following command:
/cfg/domain 1/aaa/auth #/ldap/ldapmacro
The LDAP macro menu displays.
The LDAP macro menu includes the following options:
/cfg/domain 1/aaa/auth #/ldap/ldapmacro
followed by:
list
Lists all macros in the LDAP configuration in the Nortel
SNAS 4050 domain, by index number.
del <index number>
Removes the specified LDAP macro from the current
configuration. The index numbers of the remaining
entries adjust accordingly.
To view the index numbers of all configured LDAP
macros, use the
list command.
