ID mapping ranges

In access zones with multiple external authentication providers, such as Active Directory and LDAP, it is important that the UIDs and GIDs from different providers that are configured in the same access zone do not overlap. Overlapping UIDs and GIDs between providers within an access zone might result in some users gaining access to other users' directories and files.

The range of UIDs and GIDs that can be allocated for generated mappings is configurable in each access zone through the isi auth settings mappings modify command. The default range for both UIDs and GIDs is 1000000–2000000 in each access zone.

Do not include commonly used UIDs and GIDs in your ID ranges. For example, UIDs and GIDs below 1000 are reserved for system accounts and should not be assigned to users or groups.
