2-6-3 External User Services
LDAP/E-Directory Settings
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)/E-Directory Settings is an application
protocol for querying and modifying data of directory services implemented in Internet Protocol (IP)
networks.
In Web GUI, LDAP is an Internet protocol that BMC can use to authenticate users. If you have
an LDAP server congured on your network, you can use it as an easy way to add, manage
and authenticate BMC users. This is done by passing login requests to your LDAP Server. This
meansthatthereisnoneedtodeneanadditionalauthenticationmechanism,whenusingthe
BMC. Since your existing LDAP Server keeps an authentication centralized, you will always know
whoisaccessingthenetworkresourcesandcaneasilydenetheuserorgroup-basedpolicies
to control access.
To open External User Services page, click from the menu Settings > External User Services
bar. A sample screenshot of External User Services page is shown below.

Active Directory Settings
An active directory is a directory structure used on Microsoft Windows based computers and
servers to store information and data about networks and domains. An active directory (sometimes
referred to as AD) does a variety of functions including the ability to provide information on
objects. It also helps to organize these objects for easy retrieval and access, allows access by
end users and administrators and allows the administrator to set security up for the directory.
ActiveDirectoryallowsyoutoconguretheActiveDirectoryServerSettings.Thedisplayedtable
showsanyconguredRole Groupsandtheavailableslots.Youcanmodify,addordeleterole

correspond to the name of an actual AD group.
Note: To view the page, you must be at least a User and to modify or add a group, you must be

To open PAM Ordering page, click Settings > PAM Order Settings from the menu bar. A sample

TheeldsofSetttings > PAM Ordering page are explained below.
PAM Module: It shows the list of available PAM modules supported in BMC.
It is recommended to not to keep same username for different PAM modules.Note:
If Authentication fails, the reason of fail could be invalid User or Invalid Password.
If Radius Authentication fails, we can't differentiate whether it is invalid user or invalid
password. So it is always treated as Invalid username error and PAM will try other
Authentication Methods.
If AD contains secret username & password as empty, Authentication fails will be always
treated as Invalid Password error. For Invalid Password error PAM will not try other
Authentication Methods. So it is recommended to keep AD in the last location in PAM
order.
Procedure
1. Select the required PAM module and click and drag the required PAM module. It can be
moved UP or DOWN to change its arrangement order.
2. Click to save any changes made.Save
