Delegated Administration Quick Start : Configure directory service settings for administrators
Configure directory service settings for administrators
Delegated Administration | Web Protection Solutions | v8.4.x, v8.5.x | 29-Apr-2022
Administrative users can log on to the Security Manager using either local accounts or their network accounts. In order to enable administrators to use their network logons, you must configure the Security Manager to communicate with a single directory server to authenticate those logons.
If you prefer that administrators use only local accounts to log on to the Security Manager, you can skip this section.
1.
Go to the Global Settings > User Directory page in the Security Manager.
2.
Select your directory service type from the User directory server list.
The Security Manager can communicate with the following user directories accessed via Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP):
*
Windows Active Directory
*
Generic Directory (LDAP directory service not otherwise listed)
*
Lotus Notes
*
Novell eDirectory
*
Oracle Directory Server (formerly Sun Java Directory)
3.
Provide configuration information as prompted. Go to Help > Explain This Page on the User Directory page for detailed instructions for configuring directory communication for administrator authentication.
