The designated LDAP user identity store must contain any user credentials required for authentication by this module. The LDAP store must be registered with Access Manager.

Note: Multiple identity store vendors are supported. Upon installation, there is only one User Identity Store which is also the designated System Store. If you add more identity stores and designate a different store as the System Store, be sure to change the LDAP module to point to the System Store. The authentication Scheme OAMAdminConsoleScheme relies on the LDAP module for Administrator Roles and credentials.
