Advanced LDAP Configuration
If you selected Use LDAP to retrieve user group information in step 14 of “Configuring Your
SonicWALL Security Appliance” section on page 655, you must configure your LDAP settings.
To configure LDAP settings, perform the following steps:
Step 1 The Settings tab displays. In the Name or IP address field, enter the name or IP address of
your LDAP server.
Step 2 In the Port Number field, enter the port number of your LDAP server. The default port is 636.
Step 3 In the Server timeout (seconds) field, enter a number of seconds the SonicWALL security
appliance will wait for a response from the LDAP server before the attempt times out. Allowable
values are 1 to 99999. The default is 10 seconds.
Step 4 Check the Anonymous login box to login anonymously. Some LDAP servers allow for the tree
to be accessed anonymously. If your server supports this (MS AD generally does not), you may
select this option.
Step 5 To login with a user’s name and password, enter the user’s name in the Login user name field
and the password in the Login password field. The login name will automatically be presented
to the LDAP server in full ‘dn’ notation.
