6.10.2 Configuring LDAP Authentication
When the Radius Data Source is set to use an external LDAP server (see Configuring the Radius
Server on page 6-52), the
LDAP screen is used to configure the properties of the external LDAP server.
To configure the LDAP server:
1. Select
System Configuration -> User Authentication -> RADIUS Server -> LDAP from
the menu tree.
CAUTION Ensure IPSec has been properly configured to protect communications
with the external LDAP server. Changes will not be applied otherwise.
NOTE For the onboard Radius server to work with Windows Active Directory or
open LDAP as the database, the user has to be present in a group within
the organizational unit. The same group must be present within the
onboard Radius server’s database. The group configured within the
onboard Radius server is used for group policy configuration to support a
new Time Based Rule restriction feature.
NOTE The LDAP screen displays with unfamiliar alphanumeric characters (if new
to LDAP configuration). Motorola recommends only qualified
administrators change the default values within the LDAP screen.
