Cisco ASA 5500 Series Configuration Guide using the CLI

Chapter 35 Configuring AAA Servers and the Local Database

Configuring AAA

To set up VPN user authorization using LDAP, perform the following steps.

Detailed Steps

Examples

While there are other authorization-related commands and options available for specific requirements,
the following example shows commands for enabling user authorization with LDAP. The example then
creates an IPsec remote access tunnel group named remote-1, and assigns that new tunnel group to the
previously created ldap_dir_1 AAA server group for authorization:

hostname(config)# tunnel-group remote-1 type ipsec-ra

hostname(config)# tunnel-group remote-1 general-attributes

hostname(config-general)# authorization-server-group ldap_dir_1

hostname(config-general)#

After you complete this configuration work, you can then configure additional LDAP authorization
parameters such as a directory password, a starting point for searching a directory, and the scope of a
directory search by entering the following commands:

hostname(config)# aaa-server ldap_dir_1 protocol ldap

hostname(config-aaa-server-group)# aaa-server ldap_dir_1 host 10.1.1.4

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-login-dn obscurepassword

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-base-dn starthere

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-scope subtree

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)#
