Users Guide

Configuring the iDRAC6 Using the Web Interface 75
User Domain Name This value holds up to 40 User Domain entries.
If configured, the list of user domain names will appear in
the login page as a pull-down menu for the login user to
choose from. If not configured, Active Directory users are
still able to log in by entering the user name in the format of
user_name@domain_name, domain_name/user_name,
or domain_name\user_name.
Timeout Specifies the time in seconds to wait for Active Directory
queries to complete. The default is 120 seconds.
Domain Controller
Server Address 1-3
(FQDN or IP)
Specifies the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the
Domain Controller or the IP address. At least one of the 3
addresses is required to be configured. iDRAC attempts to
connect to each of the configured addresses one-by-one
until a successful connection is made. If extended schema is
selected, these are the addresses of the domain controllers
where the iDRAC device object and the Association objects
are located. If standard schema is selected, these are the
addresses of the domain controllers where the user accounts
and the role groups are located.
Certificate Validation
Enabled
iDRAC uses Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)
over Security Socket Layer (SSL) while connecting Active
Directory. By default, iDRAC uses the CA certificate loaded
in iDRAC to validate the Security Socket Layer (SSL) server
certificate of the domain controllers during Security Socket
Layer (SSL) handshake and provides strong security. The
certificate validation can be disabled for testing purpose or
the system Administrator chooses to trust the domain
controllers in the security boundary without validating their
Security Socket Layer (SSL) certificates. This option
specifies whether Certificate validation is enabled or
disabled.
