Deep Edge
provide simple LDAP configuration for the most widely used LDAP service: MS Active
Directory
(AD). If administrators use AD, they input the basic information into the web console
to
configure the user identification method: domain name, user name, and password.
With this information, Deep Edge uses the AD auto-discover tool to obtain the necessary
information, including:
- LDAP servers addresses
- Base Domain Name
- Authentication information (Kerberos Realm/domain/KDC)
That information populates the Advanced LDAP Authentication fields. If an
Administrator decides that the auto-discovered result is incorrect or does not work,
the
Administrator can switch to Advanced Mode and modify the settings.
For LDAP servers' addresses, the auto-discovery tool determines all of the Domain
Controllers
for the domain, and Deep Edge selects and uses the two fastest servers.
