LDAP User Authentication Overview

LDAP User Authentication Overview

If you have user accounts in an enterprise LDAP directory service, you can configure Data Archive to use LDAP authentication. When you enable LDAP user authentication, you can synchronize users and role assignments. Note that corporate passwords are not stored in any product databases.
Create and manage LDAP users and groups in the LDAP directory service. Optionally, you can assign security groups to users and groups in the LDAP directory service and import the assignments to Data Archive. LDAP security groups are equivalent to Data Archive roles.
You can use the following LDAP directory services for LDAP authentication:
  • Microsoft Active Directory Service
  • Sun Java System Directory Service
If you manage users in Data Archive and want to implement LDAP authentication, you must create all users in the LDAP directory service. After you enable LDAP authentication, only users that are maintained in the LDAP directory service can log in to Data Archive.
