Use ldapclient with the genprofile option to create an LDIF representation of a configuration profile, based on the attributes specified. The profile you create can then be loaded into an LDAP server to be used as the client profile. The client profile can be downloaded by the client by using ldapclient init.
Refer to ldapclient(1M) for information about using ldapclient genprofile.
Roles contain authorizations and privileged commands. For more information about roles, see Chapter 9, Using Role-Based Access Control (Tasks), in System Administration Guide: Security Services.
# ldapclient genprofile \ -a profileName=myprofile \ -a defaultSearchBase=dc=west,dc=example,dc=com \ -a "defaultServerList=192.168.0.1 192.168.0.2:386" \
