LDAP Authentication is primarily used for HTTP basic authentication in TIBCO BusinessWorks™ Container Edition. The following fields are commonly used:
Connection
The Connection tab has the following fields.
Users and Groups
The Users and Groups tab has the following fields.
Search
The Search tab has the following fields.
Advanced
The Advanced tab has the following fields.
Field | Literal Value/Module Property | Description |
---|---|---|
Follow Referrals | None | When you select this check box, the LDAP server does not return results. Instead it returns a reference (a referral) to another LDAP server which may contain additional information such as the names and locations of other objects. |
Connection Pool | Yes | Specify the number of the connections in this field. The default is 10.
All activities that are part of the same transaction, use the same connection in the connection pool. The first activity in a transaction attempts to reestablish an invalid connection. If a connection becomes invalid during a transaction, the transaction is rolled back and must be retried, if necessary. |
Search Timeout | Yes | Specifies the timeout in milliseconds for LDAP search. The default is 0. |
