parameter
The Avaya Aura
®
Web Gateway
User Management component
uses this attribute to identify
updated users when
synchronizing the user data with
the LDAP server.
If this parameter is not
configured, the User
Management component
compares the data of every user
to the data that exists in the
LDAP server.
Note:
Configuring this parameter
improves the efficiency of
the user synchronization
process and reduces the
traffic between the Avaya
Aura
®
Web Gateway server
and the LDAP server during
user synchronization.

Multiple authentication and authorization domains
Before Release 3.4, you could configure multiple LDAPs and have multiple base contexts on each
LDAP, but you could only use one of them for authorization and authentication. With the single
authentication and authorization domain restriction in place, users had to be provisioned multiple
times so they existed in the authentication and authorization domain and in the other LDAPs used
for search.
As of Release 3.4, the multiple authentication and authorization feature removes the requirement
for a single domain for authentication and authorization and facilitates the following deployments:
• A single LDAP infrastructure belonging to a single organization with multiple configured
domains.
• Two distinct LDAP infrastructures belonging to two separate organizations.
The Avaya Aura
®
Web Gateway supports up to ten LDAP authentication and authorization
domains.
When multiple directories are enabled for authentication, you must provide your FQDN to log in.
For example:
. A short user name is not supported. If you do not have
proper data in user name attributes, such as mail and userPrincipalName, you can assign a
custom attribute that is used for the UID mapping of user names. All values in the custom attribute
must be a fully qualified user name of the form
username@domain
, where
domain
must match
one of the base context DNs defined for the LDAP.
