Advanced Access Control: Using Macro ACIs
Chapter
6
Managing Access Control
255
Macro ACI Example
The benefits of macro ACIs and how they work are best explained using an
example. Figure 6-4 on page 256 shows a directory tree in which using macro ACIs
is an effective way of reducing the overall number of ACIs.
In this illustration, note the repeating pattern of subdomains with the same tree
structure (ou=groups, ou=people). This pattern is also repeated across the tree,
because the
example.com
directory tree stores the following suffixes
dc=hostedCompany2, dc=example,dc=com
, and
dc=hostedCompany3,dc=example,dc=com
.
The ACIs that apply in the directory tree also have a repeating pattern. For
example, the following ACI is located on the
dc=hostedCompany1,dc=example,dc=com
node:
aci: (targetattr="*")(targetfilter=(objectClass=nsManagedDomain))
(version 3.0; acl "Domain access"; allow (read,search) groupdn=
"ldap:///cn=DomainAdmins,ou=Groups,dc=hostedCompany1,dc=example,dc=
com";)
This ACI grants read and search rights to the DomainAdmins group to any entry in
the
dc=hostedCompany1,dc=example,dc=com
tree.
