LDAP Configuration Example

names in the LDAP directory. This will allow any user in that LDAP group to log in with uniquely
assigned access permissions.
To assign LDAP user appliance/target permissions:
1. Click Users - Groups and create a user group with the same name as a user/security group
from the LDAPdirectory.
2. Assign the group access to the desired targets.
3. Assign the desired permissions for the targets associated with this group.
4. Log out to test authentication with an LDAP user account.
To configure a DSView™ software authentication server:
