This article guides enterprise administrators on how to seamlessly integrate ASUS OmniStor with existing authentication systems (such as LDAP or Active Directory) to enhance security and management efficiency.

Preparation for Integration

Before starting the integration, please ensure the following conditions are met:

• Have connection information for the enterprise LDAP or Active Directory server (IP, port number, Base DN)
• Administrator account with permissions for the OmniStor Manager management platform
• The enterprise internal network allows communication between OmniStor and the authentication server

ASUS OmniStor and LDAP/AD Integration Setup Steps

Please follow the steps below to complete the LDAP/AD server integration setup on the OmniStor Manager platform:

1. Log in to OmniStor Manager and go to the "Platform management" > "Authentication management" > LDAP settings".
2. Add LDAP or Active Directory server configuration, filling in server address, communication port, Base DN, and other information.
3. Set the authentication method and encryption protocol (such as SSL/TLS) to ensure secure data transmission.
4. Test the server connection to confirm that OmniStor can access the authentication server successfully.

5. Configure permission mapping rules to map group permissions in LDAP to corresponding folder access permissions in OmniStor.

Security and Management Benefits After Integration

After completing the integration, enterprises can enjoy the following benefits:

• Unified account and password management, reducing maintenance costs and human errors.
• Enhanced data access security and compliance control through permission synchronization mechanisms.
• Support for diverse authentication methods to effectively prevent unauthorized access.
