Providers (External Systems)

You can use Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for specifying access permissions. RBAC servers are remote network servers that authenticate and authorize network access based on roles assigned to individual users within an enterprise (The accounting part of AAA is not included). If a user's group in the RBAC server is not specified, or if the provider group is not mapped to any user roles, that user cannot log in. This restriction avoids security issues by ignoring users without mapped groups. You can use the following protocols to authenticate and authorize users: LDAP, Active Directory, TACACS+, and RADIUS.

From the left navigation menu of the Apstra GUI, navigate to External Systems > Providers to go to providers. You can create, clone, edit and delete providers. See subsequent pages for individual protocol details.
