Duplicating LDAP Server Settings
If you have added any LDAP/LDAPS server to the PDU, and the server you will add shares identical settings with an
existing one, the most convenient way is to duplicate that LDAP/LDAPS server's data and then revise the IP address/host
name.
1.
Repeat Steps 1 to 2 in the above procedure.
2.
Select the "Copy settings from existing LDAP server" checkbox.
3.
Click the "Select LDAP Server" field to select the LDAP/LDAPS server whose settings you want to copy.
Note: The Copy settings from existing LDAP server and Select LDAP Server fields only appear after at least one LDAP
server is already created.
4.
Modify the IP Address/Hostname field.
5.
Click Add Server.
Note: If the PDU clock and the LDAP server clock are out of sync, the installed TLS certificates, if any, may be considered
expired. To ensure proper synchronization, administrators should configure the PDU and the LDAP server to use the same
NTP server(s).
Adding RADIUS Servers
To add a RADIUS server:
1.
Choose Device Settings > Security > Authentication.
2.
Click New in the Radius section.
3.
Enter information.
Note: You must enter information in the fields showing the message 'required.'
Field or Setting
Description
IP Address / Hostname
The IP address or hostname of your Radius server.
Type of RADIUS
Authentication
Select an authentication protocol.
•
PAP (Password Authentication Protocol)
•
CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol)
•
MS-CHAPv2 (Microsoft version of the Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol)
CHAP is generally considered more secure because the user name and password are
encrypted, while in PAP they are transmitted in the clear.
