LDAP Authentication

Use the LDAP Authentication screen to configure a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)

server to authenticate device users. When LDAP authentication is selected as the Log In Method for

one or more Device Functions on the Authentication Manager page, the user at the device must enter

valid credentials (username and password) to gain access to those functions.

Authentication consists of two interdependent parts. First, the device verifies the user's credentials with

the LDAP server. After the device user has supplied valid credentials and has been authenticated, the

device searches for the user's e-mail address and name. If either step fails, the user is denied access

to the functions that have been configured to require LDAP authentication.

Use the LDAP Authentication screen to set up the parameters that are used to access the LDAP server

and searches for the user's information. Note that this page only applies when LDAP is selected as a
