Set Configuration Change Summary Preferences
Lab Manager
records
certain
configuration
operations,
such
as
adding
or
removing
a
network,
deploying
or
undeploying
the
configuration,
and
so
on,
as
change
summaries.
Other
operations,
such
as
cloning,
moving,
and
archiving,
allow
you
to
input
change
summary
text.
Change
summaries
can
be
helpful
for
tracking
and
auditing
purposes.
When
you
create
a
new
configuration
based
on
an
existing
one
(for
example,
by
cloning
a
configuration)
you
can
specify
how
many
of
the
original
configuration’s
change
summaries
you
want
the
new
configuration
to
inherit.
To set configuration change summary preferences
1
In
the
left
pane,
click
Settings
.
2
Click
the
General
tab.
3
Select
how
many
change
summaries
you
want
to
inherit.
4
Click
OK
.
Configuring LDAP Settings
You
can
configure
Lab Manager
to
create
and
authenticate
user
credentials
against
an
LDAP
server.
Instead
of
manually
creating
all
the
user
accounts,
you
enable
an
entire
company
(or
subset)
of
users
by
pointing
the
installation
to
the
appropriate
Microsoft
Active
Directory
or
OpenLDAP
server.
Lab Manager
does
not
support
hierarchical
domains
for
LDAP
authentication.
See
“Create
a
User”
on
page 24
for
information
on
manually
creating
Lab Manager
user
accounts
for
non
‐
LDAP
users.
To
provide
Lab Manager
access
to
LDAP
users,
you
must
specify
the
LDAP
settings
and
then
add
LDAP
users
or
groups
to
a
Lab Manager
organization
(see
“Create
an
Organization”
on
page 27).
When
an
LDAP
user
who
has
been
added
to
an
organization
logs
into
Lab Manager,
Lab Manager
checks
the
credentials
of
the
user
against
the
LDAP
directory.
If
the
credentials
are
accepted,
Lab Manager
creates
a
new
user
account
and
logs
the
user
into
the
system.
Lab Manager
cannot
modify
the
information
in
your
LDAP
directory.
You
can
add,
delete,
or
modify
LDAP
users
or
groups
only
in
the
LDAP
directory
itself.
Lab Manager
regularly
synchronizes
user
and
group
information
with
the
LDAP
directory.
Locate an LDAP Server
Before
typing
a
host
name
and
port
information
for
your
LDAP
server,
you
can
have
Lab Manager
try
to
locate
an
available
LDAP
server.
To locate an LDAP server
1
In
the
left
pane,
click
Settings
.
2
Click
the
LDAP
tab.
3
Click
Locate
LDAP
Server
.
Lab Manager
looks
for
LDAP
servers
registered
with
the
DNS
server
for
the
local
computer.
If
Lab Manager
finds
an
LDAP
server,
it
populates
the
Server
and
Port
text
boxes.
If
Lab Manager
finds
multiple
LDAP
servers,
it
chooses
one
based
on
the
DNS
LDAP
priority
and
weight.
