LDAP Authentication

Use the LDAP Authentication page to configure a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server to authenticate device users. When LDAP authentication is selected as the Log In Method for one or more Device Functions on the Authentication Manager page, the user at the device must enter valid credentials (username and password) to gain access to those functions.

Authentication consists of two interdependent parts. First, the device verifies the user's credentials with the LDAP server. After the device user has supplied valid credentials and has been authenticated, the device searches for the user's e-mail address and name. If either step fails, the user is denied access to the functions that have been configured to require LDAP authentication.

Use the LDAP Authentication page to set up the parameters that are used to access the LDAP server and searches for the user's information. Note that this page only applies when LDAP is selected as a Log In Method on the Authentication Manager page. The following illustration and table describe how to use this screen.
