LDAP Security Adapter Authentication Parameters in the Siebel Application Interface Profile

This topic describes the parameters you must configure in the Siebel Application Interface profile when you implement LDAP security adapter authentication.

Configure the Siebel Application Interface profile parameters using values similar to those shown in the following table. Specify values for Anonymous User Name and Anonymous User Password in the Basic Information - Authentication section of the application interface profile if you are configuring LDAP authentication for all your Siebel Business Applications. If you are implementing LDAP authentication for a single application, then specify these parameters in the Applications section of the application interface profile. For more information, see Siebel Application Interface Profile Parameters.

This task is a step in Process of Implementing LDAP Security Adapter Authentication.
