Basic Directory Structure
Distinguished Name (DN)
A DN uniquely identifies an entry in a directory. A DN consists of attribute-value pairs separated by
commas. The leftmost attribute is the Relative Distinguished Name (RDN). This provides a unique name
for entries that have the same “parent DN” (“
cn=domain1.com
,
ou=Sales, o=MyCompany
” in the
following examples).
cn=domain1.com, ou = Sales, o=MyCompany, c=US
cn=domain1.com, ou = Sales, o=MyCompany, c=JP
Base DN
A base DN specifies a directory. A base DN usually contains information such as the name of an
organization, a domain name and/or country. For example,
o=MyCompany
,
c=UK
where
o
means
organization and
c
means country.
Bind DN
A bind DN is used to authenticate with an LDAP/AD server. For example a bind DN of
cn=zywallAdmin
allows the Zyxel Device to log into the LDAP/AD server using the user name of
zywallAdmin
. The bind
DN is used in conjunction with a bind password. When a bind DN is not specified, the Zyxel Device will try
to log in as an anonymous user. If the bind password is incorrect, the login will fail.
