Remote Authentication

Note

Changes to the lab environment no longer allow this lab to work, but it does give you the general concept of how remote authentication is set up.

Authenticate against LDAP

Go to System > Users > Authentication and select Change under User Directory.

Now select LDAP from the User Directory drop-down and enter the following

Host 10.1.20.252
Remote Directory Tree dc=f5demo,dc=com
Bind DN: cn=Directory Manager
Bind Password/Confirm default
Role Administrator

Open a new private browser window to bigip01 at https://10.1.1.4 and logon using the LDAP account adminuser/password.

Q1. Were you successful?

Try logging with the local account testuser/testpass.
