LDAP
The system administrator can configure the SLC 8000 advanced console manager to use LDAP to
authenticate users attempting to log in using the Web, Telnet, SSH, or the console port.
LDAP allows SLC unit users to authenticate using a wide variety of LDAP servers, such as
OpenLDAP and Microsoft Active Directory. The LDAP implementation supports LDAP servers that
do not allow anonymous queries.
Users who are authenticated through LDAP are granted device port access through the port
permissions on this page.
All LDAP users are members of a group that has predefined user rights associated with it. You can
add additional user rights that are not defined by the group.
To configure the SLC unit to use LDAP to authenticate users:
1. Click the User Authentication tab and select LDAP. The following page displays.
