Identity Mapper

Note: this is an abstract component, that cannot be instantiated.

Identity Mappers are responsible for establishing a mapping between an identifier string provided by a client, and the entry for the user that corresponds to that identifier. Identity Mappers are used to process several SASL mechanisms to map an authorization ID (e.g., a Kerberos principal when using GSSAPI) to a directory user. They are also used when processing requests with the proxied authorization control.

Direct Subcomponents

The following Identity Mappers are available in the server :

• Exact Match Identity Mapper
