Updating LDAP Authentication Information
Updating LDAP Authentication Information
Use the following procedure to update LDAP authentication information.
Before You Begin
The setting of the Enable Synchronizing from LDAP Server check box in the LDAP System
Configuration window affects your ability to modify LDAP authentication settings. If synchronization
with the LDAP server is enabled, you cannot modify LDAP directory information and LDAP
authorization settings. Refer to the
“Understanding the Directory” section on page 20-1 for more
information about LDAP synchronization.
Conversely, if you want to enable administrators to modify LDAP directory information and LDAP
authorization settings, you must disable synchronization with the LDAP server.
Procedure
Step 1 Choose System > LDAP > LDAP Authentication.
The LDAP Authentication window displays.
Step 2 Enter the appropriate configuration settings as described in Table 16-1.
Step 3 To save your changes, click Save.
Additional Information
See the “Related Topics” section on page 16-5.
Use SSL Check this check box to use SSL encryption for security purposes.
Note If LDAP over SSL is required, the corporate directory SSL
certificate must be loaded into Cisco Unified Communications
Manager. The Cisco Unified Communications Operating System
Administration Guide describes the certificate upload
procedure.
If you check the Use SSL check box, enter the IP address or the
hostname that exists in the corporate directory SSL certificate in the
Host Name or IP Address for Server field in the LDAP Authentication
Configuration window. If the certificate contains an IP address, enter the
IP address. If the certificate contains the hostname, enter the hostname.
If you do not enter the IP address or hostname exactly as it exists in the
certificate, problems may occur for some applications; for example,
applications that use CTIManager.
