56DSR Switch Installer/User Guide

The Search Password field is used to authenticate the administrator or user specified in the Search DN field.

Use the Search Base field to define a starting point from which LDAP searches begin. The modifiable default values are dc=yourDomainName and dc=com. For example, to define a search base for test.com, type dc=test, dc=com. Each Search Base value must be separated by a comma.

The UID Mask field specifies the search criteria for User ID searches of LDAP target devices. The format should be in the form <name>=<%1>. The default value is sAMAccountName=%1, which is correct for use with Active Directory. This field is required for LDAP searches.
