Fingerprint Certificate Mapper

Note: this component has a complexity level of "expert", which means that objects of this type are not expected to be created or altered. Please contact support for assistance if you believe that you have a need to create or modify this type of object.

The Fingerprint Certificate Mapper maps client certificates to user entries by looking for the MD5, SHA-1, or SHA-2 fingerprint in a specified attribute of user entries.

Default Value
None
Allowed Values
A string
Multi-Valued
No
Required
No
Admin Action Required
None. Modification requires no further action

enabled

Description
Indicates whether the Certificate Mapper is enabled.
Default Value
None
Allowed Values
true
false
Multi-Valued
No
Required
Yes
Admin Action Required
None. Modification requires no further action

fingerprint-attribute

Description
Specifies the attribute in which to look for the fingerprint. Values of the fingerprint attribute should exactly match the MD5, SHA-1, or SHA-2 representation of the certificate fingerprint.
Default Value
ds-certificate-fingerprint
Allowed Values
The name or OID of an attribute type defined in the server schema.
Multi-Valued
No
Required
Yes
Admin Action Required
None. Modification requires no further action

fingerprint-algorithm

Description
Specifies the name of the digest algorithm to compute the fingerprint of client certificates.
Default Value
None
Allowed Values
md5 - Use the MD5 digest algorithm to compute certificate fingerprints.

sha1 - Use the SHA-1 digest algorithm to compute certificate fingerprints.

sha256 - Use the 256-bit SHA-2 digest algorithm to compute certificate fingerprints.
Multi-Valued
No
Required
Yes
Admin Action Required
None. Modification requires no further action

user-base-dn

Description
Specifies the set of base DNs below which to search for users. The base DNs are used when performing searches to map the client certificates to a user entry.
Default Value
The server performs the search in all public naming contexts.
Allowed Values
A valid DN.

dsconfig Usage

To list the configured Certificate Mappers:

dsconfig list-certificate-mappers
     [--property {propertyName}] ...

To view the configuration for an existing Certificate Mapper:

dsconfig get-certificate-mapper-prop
     --mapper-name {name}
     [--tab-delimited]
     [--script-friendly]
     [--property {propertyName}] ...

To update the configuration for an existing Certificate Mapper:

dsconfig set-certificate-mapper-prop
     --mapper-name {name}
     (--set|--add|--remove) {propertyName}:{propertyValue}
     [(--set|--add|--remove) {propertyName}:{propertyValue}] ...

To create a new Fingerprint Certificate Mapper:

dsconfig create-certificate-mapper
     --mapper-name {name}
     --type fingerprint
     --set enabled:{propertyValue}
     --set fingerprint-algorithm:{propertyValue}
     [--set {propertyName}:{propertyValue}] ...

To delete an existing Certificate Mapper:

dsconfig delete-certificate-mapper
     --mapper-name {name}
