5.4 LDAP Parameter Setup
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is an application protocol for
querying and modifying directory services running over TCP/IP. The WSG starts an
LDAP session by connecting to an LDAP server. Then it sends operation requests to
the server, and the server sends responses in return.
An LDAP directory is a tree of directory entries and follows the structure below:
• An entry consists of a set of attributes.
• An attribute has a name and one or more values.
Each entry has a unique name; the distinguished name (DN). DN consists of its relative
distinguished name (RDN) constructed from some attribute(s) in the entry, followed by
the parent entry's DN. Think of the DN as a full filename and the RDN as a relative
filename in a folder.
An entry can look like this:
dn: cn=John Ericson,dc=company,dc=com
cn: John Ericson
givenName: John
sn: Ericson
telephoneNumber: [phone]
mail: [e-mail]
dn is the name of the entry; it is not an attribute nor part of the entry. “cn=John
Ericson” is the entry's RDN, and “dc=company, dc=com” is the DN of the parent
entry. The other lines show the attributes in the entry. Attribute names are typically
mnemonic strings, like “cn” for common name, “dc” for domain component, “mail”
for e-mail address and “sn” for surname. .
