LDAP
and PKI Integration Options
LDAP Integration: For each partitioned resource,
the administrator can chose to manage the users locally on the WSA
or though a LDAP-compliant directory. When the WSA is integrated
with LDAP, the user enrollment information is obtained from the
LDAP directory. The WSA automatically tracks changes to user records
in LDAP directory.
The WSA easily and lightly integrates with all of the popular directories.
The WSA does not modify the directory.
PKI Integration: For each partitioned resource,
the administrator can chose which PKIs are recognized. The WSA accepts
only user SSL certificates generated by the recognized PKIs.
The WSA can operate as a stand-alone device or can be integrated
into your directory and PKI infrastructures.
Benefits:
-
Integrate the WSA into one or more LDAP-compliant
directories to leverage your enterprise user provisioning and
management systems
-
LDAP integration options are on a per-resource basis,
so users of a particular set of resources can be managed through
a directory and users of another set of resources might be locally
administered on the WSA. This is useful when external users
who do not belong in your directory require an access
-
PKI integration allows you to control users by restricting
the generation and distribution of certificates. Only users
with certificates from recognized PKIs can enroll for access
to specific resources
