Basic Configuration
• Debug: This option is used to assist WTI Technical Support personnel with the
diagnosis of LDAP issues. (Default = Off.)
• PingTest: (Text Interface Only) Allows you to ping IP addresses or domain names
that have been defined via the LDAP Parameters menus in order to check that a
valid IP address or domain name has been entered.
Notes:
• In order for the Ping Test feature to function, your network and/or firewall
must be configured to allow ping commands.
• In addition to the Ping Test feature, the /TEST command in the Text Interface
or the "Test" option in the Web Browser Interface can also be used to ping
any user defined IP address in order to make certain that the IP address is
responding.
5.9.8.1. AddingLDAPGroups
Once you have defined users and passwords via your LDAP server, and assigned
users to LDAP Groups, you must then grant command and port access rights to each
LDAP Group at each individual RPC unit. In order to Add an LDAP Group, you must
access the RPC command mode using a password that permits Administrator Level
commands. The Add LDAP Group menu allows the following to be defined:
• GroupName: Note that this name must match the LDAP Group names that you
have assigned to users at your LDAP server. (Default = undefined.)
• AccessLevel: Sets the command access level to either Administrator, SuperUser,
User or ViewOnly. For more information on Access Levels, please refer to
Section 5.4.1. (Default = User.)
• PortAccess: Enables/disables this LDAP Group's access to the serial Console
Port. (Default = Disabled.)
• CircuitAccess: Determine which circuits members of this group will be allowed to
control. (Default = All Circuits Off.)
• CircuitGroupAccess: Determines which circuit groups the members of this LDAP
Group will be allowed to control. (Default = undefined.)
• ServiceAccess: Determines whether members of this LDAP group will be allowed
to access command mode via the serial Console Port, via Telnet/SSH or via both
methods. (Default = Serial Port = On, Telnet/SSH = On, Web = On.)
Note: After you have defined LDAP Group parameters, make certain to save
changes before proceeding. In the Web Browser Interface, click on the "Add
LDAP Group" button to save parameters; in the Text Interface, press the [Esc]
key several times until the RPC displays the "Saving Configuration" message.
