LDAP and role-based access control
Role-based access control (RBAC) is a general security model that simplifies administration by assigning roles to users and then assigning permissions to those roles. Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a protocol to implement an RBAC methodology.
The TS7700 supports RBAC through the System Storage® Productivity Center or by native LDAP by
using Microsoft Active Directory (MSAD) or IBM's Resource
Access Control Facility (RACF).
