Secure Connect Gateway 5.x — Virtual Edition User's Guide

Configure LDAP settings

About this task

By default, you can sign in to secure connect gateway only using the administrator account credentials. Configuring LDAP settings allows users to sign in to secure connect gateway using their network credentials. After you configure the LDAP settings, you can configure access to specific users or user groups in the LDAP server.

NOTE:You can configure only one LDAP server at a time. If you do not configure the access for specific users or user groups, all the users in the LDAP server can access secure connect gateway using their network credentials. Also, If you change the LDAP server details, access to the users in the previously configured LDAP server is automatically disabled.

Steps

  1. Go to Settings > LDAP configuration.
  2. On the LDAP configuration page, perform the following steps:
    1. Select one of the following options.
      • LDAP—allows users in an LDAP network to sign in only using their network credentials.
      • Localhost and LDAP—allows signing in using the administrator account credentials or the users in an LDAP network to sign in using their network credentials.
    2. Select the LDAP server type and enter the required credentials.
    3. To allow secure connect gateway to automatically download and install the SSL certificates for your LDAP server, select the Enable and autoconfigure SSL check box.
      NOTE:It is recommended that you enable and autoconfigure SSL to ensure that LDAP authentication sessions are encrypted end to end.
    4. Click Test connection.
    5. If the connection is successful, click Apply.
    The domain display name is displayed in the Domain list on the sign-in page.
  3. To provide access to specific users or user groups in the LDAP server, perform the following steps on the LDAP user management page:
    1. Click Add.
    2. From the Select LDAP user/group list, select the required option.
    3. Search and add users of a group and click Add.
  4. To import information about the users or user groups from a CSV file, perform the following steps on the LDAP user management page:
    1. Click Import.
    2. Select the user type and upload the file.
      NOTE:UTF-8 encoded CSV file is not supported.
    3. Click Import.
  5. To save the information about the users or user groups in the LDAP User Management as a CSV file, select the users or user groups and then click Export all.
