Enable LDAP Labels

Enable LDAP Labels

After you have added and tested an LDAP Label, you can enable it. Device LDAP Labels that are enabled run against the LDAP server when devices check in to the appliance. User LDAP Labels that are enabled run against the LDAP server when users are imported manually or imported according to a schedule.

Add and test an LDAP Label. See Add or edit LDAP Labels.

1.
Go to the LDAP Label Detail page:
a.
Log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin. Or, if the Show organization menu in admin header option is enabled in the appliance General Settings, select an organization in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page next to the login information.
b.
On the left navigation bar, in the Home section, click Label Management.
c.
On the Label Management panel, click LDAP Labels.
d.
Click the name of an LDAP label.
2.
Select the Enabled check box.
3.
Click Save.

1.
Go to the LDAP Label Detail page:
a.
Log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin. Or, if the Show organization menu in admin header option is enabled in the appliance General Settings, select an organization in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page next to the login information.

Use the LDAP Browser

Use the LDAP Browser

The LDAP Browser enables you to browse and search data located on an LDAP server, such as an Active Directory server.

To use the LDAP Browser, you must have the Bind DN and the LDAP password to log on to the LDAP server.

The LDAP Browser can be useful when you need to enter information in the Search Base DN and the Search Filter fields for LDAP queries.

1.
Go to the LDAP Browser:
a.
Log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin. Or, if the Show organization menu in admin header option is enabled in the appliance General Settings, select an organization in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page next to the login information.
b.

Description

IP Address or Hostname

The IP address or the hostname of the LDAP server. If the IP address is not valid, the appliance waits to timeout, resulting in login delays during LDAP authentication.

* 
NOTE: To connect through SSL, use an IP address or hostname. For example: ldaps://hostname.

Port

The LDAP port number, which is usually 389 (LDAP) or 636 (secure LDAP).

Login

The credentials of the account the appliance uses to log in to the LDAP server to read accounts. For example:

LDAP Login:CN=service_account,CN=Users,

DC=company,DC=com.

If user name and password are not provided, the tree lookup is not performed. Each LDAP Label can connect to a different LDAP or Active Directory server.

Password

The password of the account the appliance uses to log in to the LDAP server.

3.
Click Test.
Upon successful connection to the LDAP server, the Next button becomes active.

If the operation fails, verify the following:

◦
The IP address or hostname is correct.
◦
The LDAP server is running.
◦
The login credentials are correct.
4.
Click Next.
The Narrow the Search window appears.
