LDAP

Figure 7.21: Support Services - LDAP

In this section is presented a list of the machines registered in the LDAP service of IPBrick. To insert a new machine in the LDAP domain of IPBrick is necessary to click Insert. It is also possible to Modify or Delete LDAP registers.

The insertion of machines in LDAP from here is useful, when there are IP networks different from the internal interface of IPBrick, since there is no need to indicate the IP.

Mass Operations for machines

The Export feature will export all the data to a .csv file. The Mass operations option permit an import of a .csv file. You can edit a .csv file in a spreadsheet application, choosing the ; to split the columns. When doing a export we can see all the fields present:

• action: Options available:
  • I: To insert a machine record in LDAP;
  • U: To update a machine record in LDAP;
  • D: To delete a machine record in LDAP;
• uidnumber: LDAP field that identifies the resource. Usually machines begin with UID 50000.
• name: Machine name;

Example of a .cvs file content for mass operations import option:

       action;uidnumber;name
       N;50000;pc01
       N;50001;pc02
       I;50002;pc03
       I;50003;pc04
       I;50004;pc05
