Sun Java System Directory Proxy Server 5 2004Q2

> Network Group Attributes View Return Tab
> Directory Proxy Server network groups describe how to identify an LDAP client, and the restrictions to enforce for clients that match that group. Clients are initially identified into a group based on the network address from which they connect. They may change their group after a successful bind.

> Network groups are tested in the descending order of priority, specified by their placement in the Network Group window. In this window, groups on the bottom of the list have less priority than those towards the top. If no groups are found to match a client, the client's request will be rejected. There must be at least one group entry in the configuration specification.

> Clients are identified to belong to this network group based on their IP address and/or domain name.

> This tab describes restrictions that are applied to search results being returned by the server, before they are forwarded to the client.

> Group name. Enter the group name that specifies the name of the group. This value must be unique within the set of groups. This value must be present as it forms the RDN of entries of this class.

> Enable. By default, this option is selected for you. Deselect it to disable a group in a configuration. For a group to be part of Directory Proxy Server configuration, this option must be selected.

> Return all attributes. This option is enabled by default and will permit all attributes to be returned.

> Exclude the following attributes. Enable this option to specify the name of attributes that are to be excluded from search result entries. The default, if this attribute is not present in the ids-proxy-sch-NetworkGroup object entry, and the ids-proxy-con-permitted-return attribute is not present in the group, is to permit all attributes to be returned.

> Only return the following attributes. Enable this option to specify the name of attributes that may be returned from a search result, if present.

> If there are attribute values present in a network group table, and an attribute does not match one of those listed, then it is not returned. If an attribute is not present in the table, then it is returned.

> Add... Displays a dialog box that allows an attribute to be added to the table. You must specify above whether these attributes are to be forbidden or permitted.

> Edit... Displays a dialog box to edit a selected attribute in the table.

> Remove. Removes an attribute from the table.
