Define LDAP security settings

You can use an LDAP server to manage user security in Mobile Enterprise Platform. LDAP is an acronym for Lightweight Directory Access Protocol, a protocol used to communicate with directory services, such as Active Directory or Oracle Internet Directory.

Important:Beginning in 9.0 SP6, each organizational unit can have a unique LDAP configuration. This allows you to set up multiple LDAP servers, and to use a different domain for any of your organizational units. As part of this update, the LDAP Configuration and LDAP Mapping tabs are now located on the organizational units page. Previously, those settings were located on the security settings page.

To configure LDAP security, complete the following steps in Platform Manager.

Go to Admin > Configuration > Security Settings.
Optional. To allow a user to access Mobile Client without re-entering their credentials, under User Cache Configuration, complete the following substeps.
1. Select Allow 'Remember Me'.

3. Optional. To allow users to log in with a 4 digit passcode, select Allow passcode.
