DPOD should be configured to use an LDAP registry.

The internal database registry should only be used for non-production environments or during an evaluation process of DPOD. For production environments, the only supported registry is the LDAP registry.

When using DPOD with LDAP the following behavior is expected:

• Users and security groups are managed within the LDAP registry.
• DPOD performs LDAP queries to authenticate users and to assign them with security groups and security roles.
• Defining users and security groups is not available via the Web Console.
• The internal database registry is not in use.

In order to configure LDAP, follow the following steps:

• Planning LDAP Configuration
• LDAP Configuration Script
• Troubleshooting LDAP
