5. Type the password for the user account you want to use to query the
AD server in the Password and Confirm Password fields. Maximum

AD Advanced Settings
To configure advanced AD settings:
1. Click the Advanced tab.
2. Type the port number on which the AD server is listening. The
default port is 389. If you are using secure connections for LDAP,
you may need to change this port. The standard port for secure
LDAP connections is 636.
3. Select the Secure Connection for LDAP checkbox if you want to use
a secure channel for the connection. If checked, CC-SG uses LDAP
over SSL to connect to AD. This option may not be supported by
your AD configuration.
4. Specify a Base DN (directory level/entry) under which the
authentication search query will be executed. CC-SG can do a
recursive search downward from this Base DN.
Example Description
dc=raritan,dc=com The search query for
the user entry will be
made over the whole
directory structure.
cn=Administrators,cn=Users,dc=raritan,dc
=com
The search query for
the user entry will be
performed only in the
Administrators sub-
directory (entry).
5. Type a user's attributes in the Filter field so the search query will be
restricted to only those entries that meet this criterion. The default
filter is objectclass=user, which means that only entries of the type
user are searched.
6. Specify the way in which the search query will be performed for the
user entry.
