Cisco Cisco Content Security Management Appliance M1070 Mode D'Emploi

When you create a chain query, all of its component queries have the same query type. After you select 
a query type, the query field drop-down lists display the appropriate queries from the LDAP.

Select the first query in the chain. 

The Cisco Content Security appliance runs the queries in the order you configure them. If you add 
multiple queries to the chain query, you might want to order them so that general queries follow granular 
queries.

Test the query by clicking the Test Query button and entering a user login and password or an email 
address in the Test Parameters fields. The results appear in the Connection Status field.

Check the Designate as the active query check box if you want the spam quarantine to use the domain 
query.

The chain query becomes the active LDAP query for the specified query type. For example, if 
the chain query is used for end-user authentication, it becomes the active end-user authentication 
query for the spam quarantine.

Submit and commit your changes.

To do the same configuration on the command line interface, type the 

advanced

 subcommand of the 

ldapconfig

 command at the command line prompt. 

When you configure an LDAP server profile, you can configure the Cisco Content Security appliance to 
connect to a list of multiple LDAP servers. If you use multiple LDAP servers, they need to contain the 
same information, have the same structure, and use the same authentication information. Third-party 
products exist that can consolidate the records.

You configure the Cisco Content Security appliance to connect to redundant LDAP servers to use the 
following features:

Failover. If the Cisco Content Security appliance cannot connect to an LDAP server, it connects to 
the next server in the list.

Load Balancing. The Cisco Content Security appliance distributes connections across the list of 
LDAP servers when it performs LDAP queries.
