The following DNS query is performed for SRV records:
_[Service Name]._tcp.[Search Domain]
where <Search Domain> is the root level domain to use within the query and <Service Name> is the
service name to use within the query.
For example:
_ldap._tcp.dell.com
where ldap is the service name and dell.com is the search domain.

Configuring Generic LDAP Directory Service Using RACADM
To configure the LDAP directory service, use the objects in cfgLdap and cfgLdapRoleGroup RACADM groups.
There are many options to configure LDAP logins. In most of the cases, some options can be used with their default
settings.
NOTE: It is highly recommended to use the racadm testfeature -f LDAP command to test the LDAP
settings for first time setups. This feature supports both IPv4 and IPv6.
The required property changes include enabling LDAP logins, setting the server FQDN or IP, and configuring the base
DN of the LDAP server.
• $ racadm config -g cfgLDAP -o cfgLDAPEnable 1
• $ racadm config -g cfgLDAP -o cfgLDAPServer 192.168.0.1
