132 Using the DRAC 5 With Microsoft Active Directory
To specify the Association Object, ensure that you also provide the IP or
FQDN of the Global Catalog.
NOTE: If you specify the IP address as 0.0.0.0, DRAC 5 will not search for any
server.
You can specify a list of LDAP, Global Catalog servers, or Association Objects
separated by commas. DRAC 5 allows you to specify up to four IP addresses
or hostnames.
If LDAPS is not correctly configured for all domains and applications,
enabling it may produce unexpected results during the functioning of the
existing applications/domains.
For Extended Schema, you can specify either Domain Controller or Global
Catalog with Association Object. Specifying only the Global Catalog or only
the Association Object is not applicable for Extended Schema. If you specify
only the Domain Controller, all objects including User, Group, RAC,
Privilege and Association should be on the same domain. If any of these
objects are on different domains, use the Global Catalog with the Association
Object option. You can specify up to four Domain Controllers and all these
entries should point to the same domain. You can specify up to four Global
Catalog servers. You can specify up to four Association Object servers. All
these entries should point to the same domain. In case you are using the
Association Object option, you should also configure the Global Catalog
option to be able to log in. Specify the Domain Controller name where you
created the user. Both IP or FQDN can be specified here.
For Standard Schema, specify only the Domain Controller and the Global
Catalog. Specify Association Object is not applicable with Standard Schema.
You can specify the Domain Controller where the user role groups are
created. Specify either the IP or the FQDN. You can specify up to four
Domain Controllers. All entries should point to the same domain. If you
specify only the Domain Controller, the User and Group should be on the
same domain. If the Role Groups are on different domains, you have to also
specify the Global Catalog server. You can specify up to four Global Catalog
servers. Both the IP or the FQDN can be specified here. You can also only
specify the Global Catalog servers.
