OmniSwitch 9000
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a standard directory server protocol. The LDAP
policy server client in the switch is based on RFC 2251. Currently, only LDAP servers are supported
for policy management.
The switch communicates with the LDAP server to download and manage LDAP policies.
When the policy server is connected to the switch, the switch is automatically configured to
communicate with the server to download and manage policies created by the PolicyView application.
There is no required user configuration. (Note that the LDAP policy server is automatically installed
when the Policy-View application is installed.)
Note. The switch has separate mechanisms for managing QoS policies stored on an LDAP server and
QoS policies configured directly on the switch.
