- Instant Messaging Authentication when enabled, the Openfire instant messaging server will validate each user's passwords with the LDAP server configured for this system
- Authentication Options contains three possible choices:
- No LDAP, meaning that only User authentication is verified (Credentials entered in the login form will be interpreted only as User/PIN combination and verified against sipXconfig database)
- LDAP Only, meaning that only LDAP authentication is verified (Credentials entered in the login form will be interpreted only as LDAP user/password combination and verified against configured LDAP(s) server(s) for the system)
- LDAP and PIN, meaning that both LDAP and User authentications are verified (Credentials entered in the login form will be interpreted first as LDAP user/password combination and, if LDAP authentication fails, as User/PIN combination)
NOTE:
- superadmin is always verified as User/PIN combination against sipXconfig database, no matter what authentication option is selected
- No matter if a user is LDAP managed or not, if LDAP Only or LDAP and PIN authentications schemes are set, it will try to authenticate against LDAP
Synchronization Schedule
sipXconfig supports on demand synchronization triggered through the sipXconfig UI. Additionally, the administrator has an option to configure a synchronization schedule. Weekly, daily and hourly schedules are supported (every Friday, every weekday, Every day, every hour time etc.).
