Creating an LDAP query

To synchronize an RBAC user database with an LDAP-based user registry, you must run queries on the LDAP server. These queries identify the groups and users in the LDAP registry that you want to synchronize with RBAC.

When preparing to synchronize with an LDAP user registry, you need to define two queries: one to identify groups and a second to identify the users in those groups.

For information about modifying LDAP queries, see Modifying-LDAP-queries.
