Add/Edit DAP Entry Dialog Box > AAA Attributes LDAP
The LDAP client stores all native LDAP response attribute value pairs in a database associated with the
AAA session for the user. The LDAP client writes the response attributes to the database in the order in
which it receives them. It discards all subsequent attributes with that name. This scenario might occur
when a user record and a group record are both read from the LDAP server. The user record attributes
are read first, and always have priority over group record attributes.
To support Active Directory group membership, the AAA LDAP client provides special handling of the
LDAP memberOf response attribute. The AD memberOf attribute specifies the DN string of a group
record in AD. The name of the group is the first CN value in the DN string. The LDAP client extracts
the group name from the DN string and stores it as the AAA memberOf attribute, and in the response
attribute database as the LDAP memberOf attribute. If there are additional memberOf attributes in the
LDAP response message, then the group name is extracted from those attributes and is combined with
the earlier AAA memberOf attribute to form a comma separated string of group names, also updated in
the response attribute database.
Note Duplicate entries are not allowed. If you configure a dynamic access policy with no AAA or endpoint
attributes, the security appliance always selects it since all selection criteria are satisfied.

Connection Profiles Select the check box, select the matching criteria (for example, is) from
the drop-down list, and select the connection profile from a list of all
the SSL VPN Connection Profile policies defined on the security
appliance.
An SSL VPN connection profile comprises a set of records that contain
VPN tunnel connection profile policies, including the attributes that
pertain to creating the tunnel itself.

Connection Profiles policy, see Configuring Connection
