Authentication
LDAP/Microsoft Active Directory
Overview
LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) is an application protocol for querying and 
modifying directory services running over TCP/IP. It is also used as a method of authenticating users. 
Microsoft Active Directory is an LDAP like directory service. It can be used for authenticating users 
in a similar fashion to LDAP. In this manual, the use of LDAP is synonymous with Microsoft Active 
Directory.
The following parameter need to be configured to use this feature.

Host

TLS
, you 
must enter the same string you used to create the LDAP certificate that resides 
on your LDAP/Microsoft Active Directory server.
