Bind DN
A bind DN is used to authenticate with an LDAP/AD server. For example a bind DN of
cn=zywallAdmin
allows the ZyWALL to log into the LDAP/AD server using the user name of
zywallAdmin
. The bind DN is used in conjunction with a bind password. When a bind DN is not
specified, the ZyWALL will try to log in as an anonymous user. If the bind password is incorrect, the
login will fail.
