Configuring LDAP authentication for administrators
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is an Internet protocol used to maintain
authentication data that may include departments, people, groups of people, passwords,
email addresses, printers, etc.
If you have configured LDAP support and an administrator is required to authenticate
using an LDAP server, the FortiGate unit contacts the LDAP server for authentication. If
the LDAP server cannot authenticate the administrator, the FortiGate unit refuses the
connection.
If you want to use an LDAP server to authenticate administrators in your VDOM, you must
configure the authentication before you create the administrator accounts. To do this you
need to:
•
configure the LDAP server
•
configure the FortiGate unit to access the LDAP server
•
create a user group with the LDAP server as a member.
To view the LDAP server list, go to
User > Remote > LDAP
