Search password

Search password is used if a password is required for search options. It
authenticates the administrator or user specified in the Search DN field. Any
printable ASCII characters are allowed.

Search base

Search Base defines a starting point from which all LDAP searches begin. The
default values are dc=yourDomainName and dc=com. Each search component
must be separated by a comma. For example, to define a search base for
test.com, your values are dc=test, dc=com.

UID mask

UID mask specifies the search criteria for User ID searches of LDAP target
devices. The format is <name>=<%1>. The default value is
sAMAccountName=%1, which corresponds to the default for Microsoft Active
Directory services.

Query Mode Selection Settings

Configure the Query Mode parameters for the appliance and target device. The
appliance is used to authenticate administrators and users attempting to access
the console switch. The target device is used to authenticate users attempting
to access attached target devices.

There are three query modes available. They are basic, user attribute, and group
attribute.

Basic

A username and password query for the user is sent to the directory service.
Once authenticated as a valid user, the user is given access to the appliance and
any attached target devices.

User attribute

A username, password, and Access Control Attribute query for the user is sent to
the directory service. The Access Control Attribute is read from the user object
