LDAP Overview

Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a client/server protocol used to access and manage directory information. This allows user to read/edit directories over IP networks and runs directly over TCP/IP using simple string formats for data transfer.
In Spinnaker, a standard ‘bind’ approach is used for LDAP authentication.

    hal config security authn ldap enable
