Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) authenticates users through a directory and is available for all applications. You can use LDAP referrals with Oracle Internet Directory and Microsoft Windows Active Directory. LDAP referrals allow authentication to extend to another domain. You can also configure multiple LDAP servers, which supports failover and enables you to search for users in multiple LDAP stores. An LDAP directory server database confirms the user's identity when they attempt to login to the application.
To set your LDAP settings:
- Open the Primavera P6 Administrator.
- In the Authentication tab, select your configuration from the drop-down list.
- Select Authentication.
- In the Login Mode drop-down list, select LDAP.
- To configure LDAP settings:
Note: Changes to these settings require you to restart the P6 server.
- In the SSL Certificate Store field, enter the full path to the keystore that holds the SSL certificate for the LDAP server.
- In the SSL Store Password field, enter the password for the keystore that holds the SSL certificate.
