You can map license server user fields to LDAP and Active Directory fields to import information in a user record to the license server. See Default mappings for a list of default mappings.
1. Select a user attribute and click Edit when you are adding or editing an LDAP or Active Directory server.
The Edit Attribute dialog box opens.
2. Enter the LDAP Field you want to map to the license server user field and click OK.
You can enter the LDAP field name to map a single attribute to the field or use an expression to map multiple attributes to the field. Append and prepend the LDAP field name with a percentage sign (%). For example, the expression %organization% %company% maps the Organization and Company LDAP attributes to a license server user field. Any empty fields are not set for all users on the LDAP server.
The license server uses the following backup field expressions if the primary field is unavailable or empty.
User field | LDAP attribute |
---|---|
Company | company |
Address | %postOfficeBox% %streetAddress% %l%, %st% %postalCode% |
3. To preview the field mappings, click Preview Users in the Add Server or Edit Server dialog box. See Previewing mapped LDAP attributes.
4. Click Save to save the changes.
