Polling the domain membership through the LDAP service (synchronizing) allows the system to respond to a domain user configuration change within a synchronization cycle. The Vault LDAP synchronization queries the network services on a user role basis, where role membership information is gathered for Vault user access authorization. Authenticating domain users through established directory services in this way offers the potential of a single login for access to all company systems, including the Altium Vault. This offers domain user synchronization based on the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), which queries the network’s central LDAP server to retrieve domain user group and role membership information. To simplify the process of connecting to and accessing company networks, the Altium Vault facilitates directory services support through its browser interface.
