Click Add.
The Select Mapper Plugin Implementation window appears. It lists registered
mapper modules.
3.
Select a module.
The following choices are the ones provided by default with the Certificate
Manager for mapping a CA’s certificate to the CA’s directory entry. (If you
have registered any custom mapper modules, they too will be available here
for selection.)
LdapDNCompsMap.
Select this if you want the server to locate the CA’s entry
by formulating the entry’s distinguished name from components in the
certificate subject name and using it as the search DN.
LdapDNExactMap.
Select this if you want the server to locate the CA’s entry
by searching for its certificate subject name.
LdapSimpleMap.
Select this if you want the server to locate the CA’s entry by
formulating the entry’s DN from components specified in the certificate subject
name and attribute variable assertion (AVA) constants.
LdapSubjAttrMap.
Select this if you want the server to locate the CA’s entry
by searching for an LDAP attribute whose value matches the certificate subject
name.
For the purposes of this instruction, assume that you selected
LdapDNCompsMapper
.
4.
Click Next.
The Mapper Editor window appears.
5.
Enter the appropriate information:
Mapper ID.
Type a unique name for the mapper that will help you identify it;
use an alphanumeric string with no spaces.
baseDN.
Type the DN from which the server should start searching for the
CA’s entry in the directory. If you leave the next field,
dnComps
, blank, the
server uses the base DN value to start its search in the directory. For example,
O=example.com
.
dnComps.
Type DN components (attributes) separated by commas, that you
want the server to use to locate an LDAP entry that match the CA’s
information. The server gathers values for these attributes from the CA
certificate subject name and uses the values to form an LDAP DN, which then
determines where in the LDAP directory the server starts its search. For
