Creating a generic LDAP configuration provides Cisco Secure ACS information
that enables it to pass authentication requests to an LDAP database. This
information reflects the way you have implemented your LDAP database and does
not dictate how your LDAP database is configured or functions. For information
about your LDAP database, refer to your LDAP documentation.
Before You Begin
For information about the options on the LDAP Database Configuration page, see
