The FortiGate unit supports LDAP protocol functionality defined in RFC2251 for
looking up and validating user names and passwords. FortiGate LDAP supports all
LDAP servers compliant with LDAP v3.
FortiGate LDAP support does not extend to proprietary functionality, such as
notification of password expiration, that is available from some LDAP servers.
FortiGate LDAP support does not supply information to the user about why
authentication failed.
