Active Directory (LDAP)

This guide explains how to integrate Active Directory (AD) with Cloudaware using LDAP server credentials.

To see how Cloudaware seamlessly integrates with Active Directory (AD), request a demo.

Prerequisites

• If Active Directory (AD) is publicly accessible, use the required LDAP credentials.

• If Active Directory (AD) is running in a private network, configure the TunHub gateway before adding the Active Directory integration to Cloudaware.

Add an Active Directory using LDAP

1. Log in to Cloudaware → Admin.
   

   

2. Find Active Directory (LDAP) in integrations. Сlick +ADD.

   

3. Fill out the form:
   

   

   WHERE
   Bind DN – the distinguished name of the Cloudaware user to access Active Directory
   Host – the Active Directory host (if AD is private, use the host assigned in TunHub Gateway, e.g. tunhub.cloudaware.com)
   Port – the Active Directory port (if AD is private, use the port assigned in TunHub Gateway, e.g. 1234)
   Password – the Cloudaware user password
   Base DN – the distinguished name of the core LDAP object (this value can be selected from the list after the previous fields are completed)
   
   Click SAVE.
   

4. A green light in the ‘Status’ column indicates successful configuration. If the light is red, contact support@cloudaware.com.
   

   

5. To view Active Directory objects and related data, go to Cloudaware CMDB Navigator. Select ACTIVE DIRECTORY in the left-hand menu.
