Logging In With An LDAP Account

NOTE: The LDAP Account type is only available when LDAP authentication has been enabled in LDAPSettings.

1. Enter the User Name and Password of the LDAP account.

2. Select LDAP Account from the Login using drop-down list.

3. Click Login.

SSO uses centralized authentication servers that other applications and systems utilize for authentication purposes, and

combines this with techniques to ensure that users do not actively have to enter their credentials more than once.

Kerberos SSO requires specific setting for Web browser. You must configure your Web browser to support SSO. For

more information on how to configure this, see your Web browser Help. For a list of supported Web browsers, see

System Requirements.

The following is an example of configuration steps in Microsoft Internet Explorer 8:

1. Go to Internet Exploer 8 → Internet Options → Security → Local Intranet, then click Sites. The Local Intranet

window opens.

2. Click Advanced, add your Power Center site (for example, server1.dcm.dell.com) to the Local Intranet.

NOTE: Kerberos SSO may not work if Power Center services are launched by an account other than Network

Service.

Single Domain Environment

You can set up a single domain environment with the following components:

• Domain Controller – AD server that supports the domain (parent and child)

• Power Center Server – Server with Power Center installed

• Power Center Client — Client server that connects to the Power Center server
