Special note about the AES cipher:
The BCM2 device's SSL/TLS-based protocols, including LDAPS, support
AES 128- and 256-bit ciphers. The exact cipher to use is negotiated
between the BCM2 and the client (such as a web browser), which is
impacted by the cipher priority of the BCM2 and the client's cipher
availability/settings.
Tip: If intending to force the BCM2 to use a specific AES cipher, refer to
your client's user documentation for information on configuring AES
settings.
Gathering LDAP/Radius Information
It requires knowledge of your AA server settings to configure the BCM2
for external authentication. If you are not familiar with these settings,
consult your AA server administrator for help.
Information needed for LDAP authentication:
• The IP address or hostname of the LDAP server
•
Whether the Secure LDAP protocol (LDAP over TLS) is being used

If Secure LDAP is in use, consult your LDAP administrator for the
CA certificate file.
•
The network port used by the LDAP server
• The type of the LDAP server, usually one of the following options:

OpenLDAP

If using an OpenLDAP server, consult the LDAP administrator
for the Bind Distinguished Name (DN) and password.

Microsoft Active Directory
