Configuring the LDAP client authentication

You can configure LDAP client authentication for a management module.

If the binding method is set to configured credentials, configure LDAP client authentication by completing the following steps:

  1. In the navigation pane, click MM Control → Network Protocols.
  2. Scroll down to the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Client section and click Set DN and password only if Binding Method is Client Authentication. A page similar to the one in the following illustration is displayed.

  3. Perform the initial bind to the LDAP server during user authentication with anonymous authentication, client-based authentication, or user principal name. To use client-based authentication, in the Client DN field, type a client distinguished name. Type a password in the Password field or leave it blank; then, confirm it.
