In the following example, LDAP Value represents the distinguished name (DN) of a group. When Type is Group, the Group Attribute Name field is used for mapping and represents the group attribute where the user DN is stored.
This example assigns users to a Teradata Viewpoint role based on membership in an LDAP group with the following structure:
dn: cn=DBAs,ou=Groups,dc=teradata,dc=com uniqueMember: cn=User2,ou=Users,dc=teradata,dc=com
To map User2 to the Teradata Viewpoint role Administrator, create the following role mapping:
- Type ou=Groups,dc=teradata,dc=com in the Group Search Base field.
- Type uniqueMember in the Group Attribute Name field.
- Set Type to Group.
- Type the LDAP Value cn=DBAs,ou=Groups,dc=teradata,dc=com.
- Set Viewpoint Role to Administrator.
