This article describes how to integrate Cyberoam with LDAP (Lightweight Directory Protocol).
Cyberoam – LDAP integration feature allows Cyberoam to map the users and groups from LDAP for the purpose of authentication.
Cyberoam allows implementing LDAP integration in two ways:
- Tight Integration – It provides an added layer of protection by authenticating user based on the group membership apart from authentication attribute. One needs to configure both Group Name attribute and authentication attribute for authentication. Group membership of each user and expiry date is as per defined in LDAP server. LDAP server uses Group and expiry date used for extracting the user information.
- Loose Integration – It uses authentication attribute for authenticating users.
