Adding Domains

Name that uniquely identifies the domain. The name for the domain that contains users added manually to FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications is FLEXnet. Additional domains that are added are directory service domains.

The protocol used to access the directory service. LDAP and LDAPS protocols are supported. If LDAPS is selected, see the FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications Installation Guide for instructions to configure secure (SSL) client settings.

Name of the host machine on which the directory service runs.

Port on the host machine on which the directory service listens for requests. The default ports are:

The user name which is used when binding to the active directory domain to perform domain operations.

The password used when binding to the active directory domain to perform domain operations.

The location in the directory service data at which to start searching for authentication information.

The directory service filter condition that is used to identify entries of type user.

The directory service filter condition that is used to identify a user during the authentication process.

The directory service attribute that contains the userId value. When a user is created from directory service, this attribute is used to get the userId value and stored as user name.

The directory service attribute of a user that contains the groups to which that user belongs.

The directory service attribute that contains the display name of a user.

The directory service attribute that contains a user’s display detail. The value of this property is displayed in the Add User page when you create a user from a directory service. If not defined, the default value is the User Distinguished Name in the directory service.

The name of the attribute in the directory service that stores the user's organization. The value specified in the directory service for this property must be the same as that defined by the Organization Identifier in FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications.

The name of the attribute in the directory service that stores the user's email. If this is not defined, the user email will not be populated.

The name of the attribute in the directory service that stores the user’s locale.

The locale ID value specified by this property in the directory service must use the format <language code>_<country code>. For example, the locale ID en_GB is for Great Britain English, while en_US is used for United States English.

The name of the attribute in the directory service that stores the time zone defined for that user. The value specified by this property in the directory service must take one of the following formats (these are supported by Java):

GMT <+|-> <Hours>:<Minutes>

GMT <+|-> <Hours><Minutes>

GMT <+|-> <Hours>

Hours is represented as either single-digit or double-digit.

Minutes is represented as double-digit.

A digit is either 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 or 9.

Example: GMT +05:30 or GMT +0500 or GMT +5

The directory service filter condition that is used to identify entries of type group. The syntax (include parentheses) is (attribute_name=value), where value is the value of the directory service attribute when the object is a group.

The directory service attribute that contains the display name of a group.

The directory service attribute that contains a group’s display detail. The value of this property is displayed in the Add Group page when you create a group from a directory service. If not defined, the default value is the Group Distinguished Name in the directory service.

If a positive number is specified, FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications tries to use paging when searching for directory service entries. Paging means that the directory service returns no more than the specified number of entries at a time instead of all entries in one batch.

Set this value to a number less than or equal to the page size limit imposed by the directory service. Not all directory services support paging; if your directory service does not, set the page size to 0.
