Common Name
Identifier Enter the common name identifier for the LDAP server.
The common name identifier for most LDAP servers is cn. However some
servers use other common name identifiers such as uid.
Distinguished
Name Enter the distinguished name used to look up entries on the LDAP server.
Enter the base distinguished name for the server using the correct X.500 or
LDAP format. The FortiWiFi unit passes this distinguished name unchanged
to the server.
For example, you could use the following base distinguished name:
ou=marketing,dc=fortinet,dc=com
where ou is organization unit and dc is domain component.
You can also specify multiple instances of the same field in the distinguished
name, for example, to specify multiple organization units:
ou=accounts,ou=marketing,dc=fortinet,dc=com
