User management through LDAP
Cisco PVM provides the user the ability to manage authentication and authorization through a LDAP server. When configured, Cisco PVM will use the LDAP protocol to communicate with the LDAP server whenever user authentication or authorization is necessary in PVM.
The LDAP configuration file is located at /opt/CSCOpvm/jboss/bin/texasConfig.properties. When Cisco PVM is not operating in LDAP mode, the ldap.enabled property in the config file is set to false. To enable LDAP mode, set this value to true.
Cisco PVM can communicate with the LDAP server in two modes:
The configuration for
•ldap.enabled=true
•ldap.auth.scheme=simple
•ldap.account.name=admin
•ldap.server.name=ware.trendium.com
•ldap.server.port=389
The configuration for SSL is as follows:
•ldap.enabled=true
