LDAP Overview

The SDX directory schema is based on X.500/LDAP standards and the Common Information Model version 2.5 (CIM 2.5) schemas. The SDX schema includes additional elements for modeling primary access services, value-added services, outsourced services, residential, enterprise and retail customers, policies, network elements and others.

Depending on the component, the access rights differ. For example, RADIUS needs to have sufficient rights to read and compare user passwords that are part of the RADIUS profiles, but RADIUS does not require absorbing of any other user passwords. In addition, RADIUS does not require to perform any modification, creation or deletion of the entries.
