Change Group Action

Name. Enter a name for this action.

Change Table. Displays a list of groups to which a client can change. For a change to occur, the client must match a DN expression associated with each group. To edit the DN expression associated with a particular group or "no change" entry, click the "If client DN matches" column in the table. The list is evaluated from top to bottom until a DN expression is matched. Therefore, it is important that the most general DN expression is at the bottom of the list so that all expressions will be evaluated.

Regular expressions must be normalized, i.e., there should be no spaces in between RDN components and "=" sign, all attribute names must be capitalized, and attribute values with cis syntax must be capitalized.

The following book can be used as a reference on regular expressions: Mastering Regular Expressions, by Friedl and Oram, published by O'Reilly, ISBN: 1565922573.

Add. Displays a menu for adding a group to which a client connection could potentially change. Group change entries can be of the following types: "Group change entry," or "No change entry."

Group change entry. Displays a dialog for selecting a network group to which a client will change depending on whether or not the associated DN expression evaluates to TRUE.

No change entry. Adds a row to the table indicating that NO change should occur if the associated DN expression evaluates to TRUE. This is useful in providing a "short circuit" of the evaluation of the change group list.

Edit. Displays a dialog for editing the currently selected entry in the table.

Remove. Removes the currently selected entry in the table.
