Domain authentication and SSO

Domain connection(s) can be managed in General\System\LM Settings with superadmin role.

In tab LDAP Properties is possible to manage a list of domain connection(s). Is possile to define connection(s) related to differente domain(s) or to same domain but with different BaseDN.

Field	Description	Comment
Configuration Name	The name of current Domain connection
Host	Domain server address or host name
BaseDN	TBC.
Server Type	Type of domain controller	AD (active Directory) and OpenLDAP are supported
Active	If checked the connection is active	TBC.

By click on button Add New is possible to add a domain connection by filling the following properties

Field	Description	Comment
Configuration Name	TBC.
Host	TBC.
Server Type	TBC.
BaseDN	TBC.
Bind User	TBC.
Bind Password	TBC.	TBC.
Active	TBC.	TBC.
Sample user's login	TBC.	TBC.
Sample user's password	TBC.	TBC.
Checked	TBC.	TBC.

A domain connection shall be activable only after it was checked: use button Check to verify it.

At click on button Check: itmSUITE will send a request to domain with inserted credentials.

If at least 1 connection is active the user with same login on domain could use domain credentials instead of user credentials.

In this case the authentication follows these steps:

• 1. itmSUITE checks if login inserted is existing in its DB, otherwise access is not allowed.
• 2. itmSUITE sends a request with pair login, password to domain controller.
• 3. The domain controller checks if the login inserted is existing in domain and if password is correct.
• 4. If domain controller response is positive: itmSUITE allows access.
• 5. If domain controller response is negative: itmSUITE checks password on its DB and grants access if check is positive, otherwise access is not allowed.

More than one connection to domain(s) can be active at the same time: in this case the above step 2 is executed on each active connection.
