Creating LDAP Domains

You can create as many LDAP domains as you like. Each domain has a full set of configuration parameters. To add a domain, select Administration > LDAP, then click Add LDAP Domain. Enter values for the new domain's parameters, then click Save.

Note: If you have only one domain, the system automatically uses it for authentication. If you create more than one, the system provides users with a domain drop-down list on the login page.

Enter a name for the new domain, to identify the domain within the Management Console. The domain name is not used outside the console.

When you add a domain, the system creates a set of parameters for the new domain and applies the default LDAP/Active Directory configuration values to them. The default parameters are designed to work with a standard Microsoft® Active Directory server.
