This command is relevant only in the following situation:
  • LDAP search is enabled with the mc-ldap-search command
  • When the credentials mapping method, as defined with the mc-method command, is local or xmlfile.
Beyond an SSL proxy profile to secure communication to search the LDAP for the group name, use the following commands to complete the configuration.
  • How to connect to the LDAP server. Use either of the following approaches.
    • The mc-server-host and mc-server-port commands
    • The mc-loadbalancer-group command
  • Specify the login DN to access the LDAP server with the mc-ldap-bind-dn command
  • Specify the user's password with the mc-ldap-bind-password command
  • Optionally associate LDAP search parameters with the mc-ldap-parameters command
