Configuring Generic LDAP Directory Service Using RACADM
To configure the LDAP directory service, use the objects in cfgLdap and cfgLdapRoleGroup RACADM groups.
There are many options to configure LDAP logins. In most of the cases, some options can be used with their default settings.
NOTE: It is highly recommended to use the racadm testfeature -f LDAP command to test the LDAP settings for
first time setups. This feature supports both IPv4 and IPv6.
The required property changes include enabling LDAP logins, setting the server FQDN or IP, and configuring the base DN of the
LDAP server.
• $ racadm config -g cfgLDAP -o cfgLDAPEnable 1
• $ racadm config -g cfgLDAP -o cfgLDAPServer 192.168.0.1
• $ racadm config -g cfgLDAP -o cfgLDAPBaseDN dc=
company,dc=com
CMC can be configured to optionally query a DNS server for SRV records. If the cfgLDAPSRVLookupEnable property is enabled
the cfgLDAPServer property is ignored. The following query is used to search the DNS for SRV records:
_ldap._tcp.domainname.com
ldap in the above query is the cfgLDAPSRVLookupServiceName property.
cfgLDAPSRVLookupDomainName is configured to be domainname.com.
