4.1 User management concept for the

iRMC S2/S3
User management for the iRMC S2/S3 permits the parallel administration of
local and global user identifications.
When validating the authentication data (user name, password) which users
enter when logging in to one of the iRMC S2/S3 interfaces, iRMC S2/S3
proceeds as follows (see also figure 19 on page 67):
1. The iRMC S2/S3 compares the user name and password with the locally
stored user identifications:
If the user is authenticated successfully by iRMC S2/S3 (user name and
password are valid) then the user can log in.
Otherwise, the iRMC S2/S3 continues the verification with step 2.
2. The iRMC S2/S3 authenticates itself at the directory service via LDAP with
a user name and password, determines the user rights by means of an
LDAP query and checks whether the user is authorized to work with these
at the iRMC S2/S3.
