Issue/Introduction

There is a requirement to use secure LDAP or LDAPS for CAS management access.

The LDAP server only supports LDAPS.

Resolution

Below are the commands to run on the CAS CLI:

 

1. Fetch the certificate from the LDAPS server.

(config-authentication)# ldap certificates install location http://<web_server_IP_or_hostname>/certificate123.crt

Where "web_server_IP" is your local server where you saved the certificates.

Alternatively, you could use the command below as well.

(config-authentication)# ldap certificates get url ldaps://<ldap_server_IP_or_hostname>


2. Verify that the certificates are properly stored.

(config-authentication)# certificate-auth ca-certificates list

 

3. Verify the connection:

(config-authentication)# ldap certificate test url ldaps://<ldap_server_IP_or_hostname>

Log out of the CAS GUI and try to log in using the LDAP user to verify this further.
