    Hello ,

     

    I have a business requirement to Access Appliance using multiple user ( preferable ldap user) , In place of ssgconfig user only.

     

    is it possible to have multiple users for appliance ?

     

    if yes 

     

    is it possible to Integrate ssg login with Enterprise LDAP ?

     

    Please provide input on it !

    Hi Apurva,

     

    I dont see a reason why you cannot have multiple users. Here is some documentation to integrate with Enterprise LDAP

     

    Simple LDAP Identity Provider Wizard - CA API Gateway - 9.1 - CA Technologies Documentation

    Hello Seenu,

     

    thanks for your prompt response. 

     

    But my requirement is different ,i want to authenticate API Gateway Appliance itself to Ldap , Not API gateway or services users.

     

    For example :

     

    To access API Gateway Appliance we need to enter as "ssgconfig" user. I want this user get authenticate to my Enterprise LDAP . or atleast have Multiple users instead of a single  "ssgconfig" (default) user !!
