Basic Configuration
5.9.8. LDAP Parameters
The TSM/RSM supports LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol,) which allows
authentication via the "Active Directory" network Directory Service. When LDAP is
enabled, command access rights can be granted to new users without the need to
define individual new accounts at each TSM/RSM unit, and existing users can also be
removed without the need to delete the account from each TSM/RSM unit. This also
allows administrators to assign users to LDAP groups, and then specify which plugs the
members of each group will be allowed to control at each TSM/RSM unit.
In order to apply the LDAP feature, you must first define User Names and associated
Passwords and group membership via your LDAP server, and then access the
TSM/RSM command mode to configure LDAP settings and define port access rights
and command access rights for each group specified at the LDAP server. To access
the LDAP Parameters menu, login to TSM/RSM command mode using a password that
permits Administrator level commands.
