To work with the manager, user authentication and authorization are required. Authentication can be performed using:
Built-in PPEM tools — user and group data is stored in the repository and managed by the PPEM administrator.
An external LDAP directory (OpenLDAP or Active Directory). If you use the external directory, the manager must be configured to work with this directory. All user and group data is stored in an external directory and managed by a dedicated LDAP directory administrator.
