Adding an LDAP Authentication Namespace
Access the Cognos Configuration tool as described in Verifications. Following the instructions found in the IBM Cognos Business Intelligence Installation and Configuration Guide, add a new namespace resource with a type of LDAP or Active Directory, as appropriate, that corresponds to your Enterprise LDAP. You must also specify values for the following fields:
• Namespace ID
• Host and Port
• Base Distinguished Name
When logging into
Windchill Business Reporting, users are presented with a drop-down list of the available namespaces to choose from, including the original Administrative LDAP configured by the PSI, and the new Enterprise LDAP. To have the log-in default to the Enterprise LDAP, see
Set the Default Namespace (Optional). You can later choose to remove the default namespace and revert to the drop-down list.
