LDAP

LDAP mode authenticates users against an existing directory, most commonly Active Directory. Users sign in with their directory credentials, and directory groups can drive WebStream access.

What you need

Configure LDAP

  1. Set the organization's authentication mode to LDAP — see Authentication Modes.
  2. Enter the directory connection details — host, port, TLS, and bind account.
  3. Define the user and group search with a base DN and filters.
  4. Map directory groups to WebStream groups so access follows the directory.
  5. Test a sign-in with a directory account and verify entitlements.
Note

Use a dedicated, least-privilege bind account for directory lookups, and prefer a TLS-secured connection so credentials are not sent in clear text.
