RapidIdentity Administrators' and Users' Guide

LDAP User Settings

The User Settings interface allow administrators to define what types of directory objects RapidIdentity should consider Users and which LDAP attributes RapidIdentity should use when working with User objects.

The available attributes in each drop-down box are based upon those attributes configured in the Global Attribute List. The Mobile Number Attribute must be defined here for SMS Authentication to be available.

If User Base DN is unknown, clicking the magnifying glass generates the LDAP directory tree.
