Securing LDAP on Meetingplace Express

Hello,

I'm looking to harden the security of a MeetingPlace Express (V2.0.1.15).

SSL has been implemented successfully resulting in https browsing only.

The next step is to integrate with AD for user authentication over a secure link. The Bind requests currently are simple (i.e. clear text userid and password) which is not secure.

Can anyone advise on how this can be configured to use SSL/TLS for the LDAP queries. This is a standalone MPX in that I do not have a Cisco Call Manager to secure the queries.

Thanks.

You will need to install the AD Plugin for CallManager before this.

Complete these steps in order to integrate MeetingPlace Express with Active Directory (AD):

- Log in to Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express.

- Choose Administration at the top of the page.

- On the left side of the page:

Choose System Configuration.

Choose Usage Configuration.

- Configure these fields:

Cisco CallManager version-Set this field to Cisco Unified CallManager Release 4.x.

LDAP URL-Set this field:

Make sure that this URL starts with ldap, not http. For example, ldap://server-ip-address:port/

Make sure that there are no spaces after the URL.

Directory username-Use the format of an LDAP distinguished name, for example:

Password-Use the password that was specified during the Cisco Unified CallManager installation.

Cisco base

User base

Directory type

- Click Save.
