Deep Edge provide simple LDAP
configuration for the most widely used LDAP service: MS Active Directory (AD). If
you 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 server addresses, the auto-discovery tool determines all of the Domain Controllers
for
the domain, and Deep Edge selects and uses the two fastest
servers.
