Table 46 LDAP Configuration fields

Field	Description
Enable LDAPs	If selected, makes LDAP requests between the Nortel
	SNAS 4050 and the LDAP server occur over a secure SSL
	connection (LDAPS). The default is not selected.
	Note: The default TCP port number used by the LDAP
	protocol is 389. If LDAPS is enabled, change the port
	number to 636.
Search Base Entry	Specifies the Distinguished Name (DN) that points to one
	of the following:
	• the entry that is one level up from the user entries (does
	not require a Bind ISD DN and Bind ISD Password)
	• if user entries are located in several places in the LDAP
	Dictionary Information Tree (DIT), the position in the
	DIT from where all user records can be found with a
	subtree search (requires Bind ISD DN and Bind ISD
	Password)
Group Attribute	Specifies the LDAP attribute that contains the names of the
	groups. The group names contained in the LDAP attribute
	must be defined in the Nortel SNAS 4050 domain (see
	“Configuring groups using the SREM” on page 208).
	To specify more than one group attribute name, enter the
	names separated by a comma (,).
