Defining LDAP APN Filters

Define the APN name to filter the data source. You can configure multiple search filters per data source.
The APN search filter supports regular expressions and uses these patterns:
  • Wild Card: Pattern.*
  • Equal to: Pattern
  • Not Equal to: ^(?!.*Pattern).*$
These rules are followed when using the search filters:
  • If only subscription ID filters exist, if at least one subscription ID filter is matched, the result is matched.
  • If only APN filters exist, if at least one APN filter is matched, the result is matched.
  • If APN filters and subscription ID filters exist, if at least one subscription ID filter and one APN filter are matched, the result is matched.

To define LDAP APN filters:

  1. Click Search Filters tab.
  2. In the APN Filters section, enter a regular Expression to use to filter the search results.
    For example:
    • 508.*

      Matches numbers beginning with 508

    • ".*@example.com"

      Matches strings ending with @example.com

    • .*

      Matches any input string

  3. Click Add.

    The expression appears in the list of search filters.

  4. Click Save or proceed with Selecting LDAP Associated Data Sources.
