You can configure a user directory connection that lets the Policy Server communicate with an IBM Directory Server user store.

To configure the user directory connection

    LDAP settings open.

  4. Complete the remaining required connection information on the General and Directory Setup group boxes.

    Note: If the Policy Server is operating in FIPS mode and the directory connection is to use a secure SSL connection when communicating with the Policy Server, the certificates used by the Policy Server and the directory store must be FIPS compliant.

  5. Type the LDAP Search and LDAP User DN Lookup settings in the fields on the LDAP Settings group box.
  6. (Optional) Select Require Credentials on the Administrator Credentials group box, and type the user name and password of an administrator's account on the user directory in the fields on the group box.
