LDAP user accounts and LDAP computers can be grouped into LDAP groups that can be used to regulate access to resources.
In One Identity Manager, you can assign LDAP groups directly to LDAP user accounts and LDAP computers or they can be inherited through departments, cost centers, locations, or business roles. Users can also request the groups through the Web Portal. To do this, groups are provided in the IT Shop.
You can assign LDAP groups directly or indirectly to LDAP user accounts and LDAP computers. Employees (workdesks or devices) and LDAP groups are grouped into hierarchical roles in the case of indirect assignment. The number of LDAP groups assigned to an employee (workdesk or device) is calculated from the position within the hierarchy and inheritance direction.
If you add an employee to roles and that employee owns an LDAP user account, the LDAP user account is added to the LDAP group.
If you add a device to roles, the LDAP computer that references the device is added to the LDAP groups.
If a device owns a workdesk and you add the workdesk to roles, the LDAP computer, which references this device, is also added to all LDAP groups of the workdesk's roles.
Furthermore, LDAP groups can be requested through the Web Portal. To do this, add employees to a shop as customers. All LDAP groups are assigned to this shop can be requested by the customers. Requested LDAP groups are assigned to the employees after approval is granted.
Through system roles, LDAP groups can be grouped together and assigned to employees and workdesks as a package. You can create system roles that contain only LDAP groups. You can also group any number of company resources into a system role.
To react quickly to special requests, you can also assign LDAP groups directly to LDAP user accounts and LDAP computers.
