Note: The following steps apply to WCC 11g and WCC 12c

Configuring the Embedded LDAP Server

Configure the embedded LDAP server

Creating Content Server Roles

Mapping Content Server Roles to the Embedded LDAP Groups

Mapping Content Server Accounts to the Embedded LDAP Groups

To map Content Server Accounts to LDAP groups, precede the groups with an @ symbol. Use standard naming conventions such as @account_rwda. It is assumed that accounts are already enabled on the Content Server. If you wish to map arbitrary values see the section below.

Edit the JPS provider in WCC (Administration -> Providers).

The WCC managed server needs to restarted after editing the provider.

Mapping Arbitrary Values with a Credentials Map

Credential maps solve the problem of creating groups in your external directory server that match the names used in WCC for roles and accounts. In order to use Credential Mapping the ProxyConnections component needs to be enabled on the UCM managed server. This component is enabled by default.

How to Create the Credentials Map
