LDAPS Integration

In case of LDAPS, you have to ensure that the issuing CA of the LDAP endpoint certificate is trusted.

For this, you have to assign a provider for the backend truststore in the nevisAuth Instance pattern.

• You do this in the Backend Trust Store field, Key Management tab.

You can assign the following patterns as provider:

• nevisKeybox Store: To use CA certificates managed via nevisKeybox on the target servers.
• PEM Trust Store: To deploy the CA certificates using nevisAdmin 4.
