178 Using the iDRAC6 Directory Service

Enter the following information:

• Select

Enable Generic LDAP

NOTE: In this release, nested group is not supported. The firmware searches

for the direct member of the group to match the user DN. Also, only single

domain is supported. Cross domain is not supported.

• Select the

Use Distinguished Name to Search Group Membership

option to use the Distinguished Name (DN) as group members.

iDRAC6 compares the User DN retrieved from the directory to

compare with the members of the group. If cleared, user name

provided by the login user is used to compare with the members of the

group.

•In the

LDAP Server Address

field, enter the fully qualified domain

name (FQDN) or the IP address of the LDAP server. To specify

multiple redundant LDAP servers that serve the same domain, provide

the list of all servers separated by commas. iDRAC6 tries to connect to

each server in turn, until it makes a successful connection.

• Enter the port used for LDAP over SSL in the

LDAP Server Port

field.

The default is 636.

•In the

Bind DN

field, enter the DN of a user used to bind to the server

when searching for the login user’s DN. If not specified, an

anonymous bind is used.

• Enter the

Bind Password

to use in conjunction with the

Bind DN

•In the

Base DN to Search

field, enter the DN of the branch of the

directory where all searches should start.

•In the

Attribute of User Login

field, enter the user attribute to search

for. Default is UID. It is recommended that this be unique within the

chosen Base DN, else a search filter must be configured to ensure the

uniqueness of the login user. If the user DN cannot be uniquely

identified by the search combination of attribute and search filter, the

•In the

Attribute of Group Membership

field, specify which LDAP

attribute should be used to check for group membership. This should

be an attribute of the group class. If not specified, iDRAC6 uses the

member

and

uniquemember

attributes.
