Scenario: Network running Active Directory
On networks running Active Directory, administrators can use the LDAP+GSSAPI capabilities of the Embedded Web
Server to take advantage of authentication and authorization services already deployed on the network. User
credentials and group designations can be pulled from the existing network, making access to the printer as seamless
as other network services.
Step 1: Collect information about the network
Before configuring the Embedded Web Server to integrate with Active Directory, you will need to know the following:
1
Kerberos configuration information
•
Character encoding (used for passwords)
•
Location of the Kerberos file on the network (if importing a krb5.conf file)
•
If creating a Simple Kerberos Setup:
–
The IP address or hostname of the
Key Distribution Center
(KDC)
–
The KDC port
–
The name of the Realm (or domain) where the KDC is located
•
The Kerberos username (distinguished name) and password assigned to the printer
