[ldap] stanza

Edit online

This stanza defines configuration key value pairs that are required for the Verify Identity Access servers to communicate with the server that is associated with an LDAP user registry.

The value for the user registry stanza entry (ldap-server-config) is determined by the pd.conf file. The pd.conf file is created when the IBM Verify Identity Access runtime component is configured.

The key value pairs that are used only for the LDAP registry server are in the ldap.conf configuration file in the [ldap] stanza. The LDAP server stanza entries are described separately in [ldap] stanza for ldap.conf.

The key value pairs that are for the server configuration files are in the [ldap] stanza of each of the following configuration files:
  • The ivmgrd.conf configuration file for the policy server
  • The [instance-]ivacld.conf configuration file for the authorization server
  • Your resource managers' configuration file for configured LDAP entries

    The aznAPI.conf configuration file is provided with Verify Identity Access as a sample file for creating your own resource manager configuration file. Developers of service plug-ins typically provide the standard functions. Before you implement service plug-ins, read and thoroughly understand the concepts in the Authorization C API Developer Reference.
