This KB explains how to manage VNX's unisphere using an LDAP user

The VNX provides three different management user authentication scopes for flexible management options.

The LDAP authentication scope is used when the VNX is configured to bind to an LDAP domain.

The VNX performs an LDAP query to the domain to authenticate the administrative users. LDAP domain users and groups are mapped to user and group IDs on the VNX.

To set up LDAP authentication:
  • On UniSphere: Choose the array > settings > Manage LDAP domain > Add
  • Add LDAP details then click ok
  • Click Synchronize and define the desirable synchronization rate 
  • Confirm that the LDAP group was added successfully and mapped to a unisphere group with role assignement by selecting : settings > security > user management > user customization for file > groups
  • Login using an LDAP user which is a member of the added group

Additional Information

  • When the  use LDAP  option is selected during user login, the Global or Local scope setting is disregarded.
  • Make sure that the Array is able to access LDAP and there is no firewall or security rules that prevents that.
