Validating users with an LDAP server

When your TM1 users log in, the user name and password they provide is validated against the information held in your LDAP server. You can specify a password and key to use before the server connects for LDAP authentication, or the server can directly connect without the use of a password.

As a prerequisite to setting up LDAP authentication, you must have significant knowledge of LDAP and its role in your network security structure. If you are not the LDAP administrator for your network, consult with your LDAP administrator to properly set up TM1® Server to use LDAP authentication.
