# Auth Methods
|
|
|
|
An auth method is a resource that provides a mechanism for [users][] to
|
|
authenticate to Boundary. An auth method contains [accounts][] which link an
|
|
individual user to a set of credentials and [managed groups][] which groups
|
|
[accounts][] that satisfy criteria and can be used as principals in [roles][].
|
|
Auth methods can be defined at either a [Global][] or [Organization][]
|
|
[scope][].
|
|
|
|
## Attributes
|
|
|
|
All auth methods have the following configurable attributes:
|
|
|
|
- `name` - (optional)
|
|
If set, the `name` must be unique within the auth method's scope.
|
|
|
|
- `description` - (optional)
|
|
|
|
### Password Auth Method Attributes
|
|
|
|
The password auth method has the following additional attributes:
|
|
|
|
- `min_login_name_length` - (required) The default is 3.
|
|
|
|
- `min_password_length` - (required) The default is 8.
|
|
|
|
### LDAP Auth Method Attributes
|
|
|
|
The ldap auth method has the following additional attributes:
|
|
|
|
- `state` - The state of the auth method; either inactive, active-private, or
|
|
active-public.
|
|
|
|
- `start_tls` - (optional) If true, issues a StartTLS command after establishing
|
|
an unencrypted connection. Defaults to false.
|
|
|
|
- `insecure_tls` - (optional) If true, skips LDAP server SSL certificate
|
|
validation, which is insecure and should be used with caution. Defaults to
|
|
false.
|
|
|
|
- `discover_dn` - (optional) If true, use anon bind to discover the bind DN
|
|
(Distinguished Name) of a user. Defaults to false.
|
|
|
|
- `anon_group_search` - (optional) If true, use anon bind when performing LDAP
|
|
group searches. Defaults to false.
|
|
|
|
- `upn_domain` - (optional) If set, the userPrincipalDomain is used to construct
|
|
the UPN string for the authenticating user. The constructed UPN appears as
|
|
[username]@UPNDomain Example: example.com, which causes Boundary to
|
|
bind as username@example.com when it authenticates the user.
|
|
|
|
- `urls` - (required) The LDAP URLS that specify LDAP servers to connect to.
|
|
There must be at least one URL for each LDAP auth method. When attempting to
|
|
connect, the URLs are tried in the order specified.
|
|
|
|
- `user_dn` - (optional) If set, the base DN under which to perform user
|
|
search. Example: ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com
|
|
|
|
- `user_attr` - (optional) If set, defines the attribute on a user's entry
|
|
matching the login-name passed when the user authenticates. Examples: cn, uid
|
|
|
|
- `user_filter` - (optional) If set, the Go template used to construct an LDAP
|
|
user search filter. The template can access the following context variables:
|
|
[UserAttr, Username]. The default user_filter is ({{.UserAttr}}={{.Username}})
|
|
or (userPrincipalName={{.Username}}@UPNDomain) if the upn-domain parameter is
|
|
set.
|
|
|
|
- `enable_groups` - (optional) If true, an authenticated user's groups are
|
|
found during authentication. Defaults to false.
|
|
|
|
- `group_dn` - (optional) If set, the base DN under which to perform a group
|
|
search. Example: ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com
|
|
|
|
Note: There is no default, so no base DN is used for group searches, if
|
|
it's not specified.
|
|
|
|
- `group_attr` - (optional) If set, the LDAP attribute to follow on objects
|
|
returned by group_filter in order to enumerate user group membership.
|
|
Examples: for group_filter queries returning group objects, use: cn. For
|
|
queries returning user objects, use: memberOf. The default is cn.
|
|
|
|
- `group_filter` - (optional) If set, the Go template used when constructing the
|
|
group membership query. The template can access the following context
|
|
variables: [UserDN, Username]. The default is
|
|
(|(memberUid={{.Username}})(member={{.UserDN}})(uniqueMember={{.UserDN}})),
|
|
which is compatible with several common directory schemas.
|
|
|
|
- `certificates` - (optional) If set, PEM encoded x509 certificates in ASN.1
|
|
DER form that can be used as trust anchors when connecting to an LDAP
|
|
provider.
|
|
|
|
- `client_certificate` - (optional) If set, a PEM encoded x509 certificate in
|
|
ASN.1 DER form to be used as a client certificate. It must be set, if you
|
|
specify the optional client_certificate_key.
|
|
|
|
- `client_certificate_key` - (optional) If set, a PEM encoded certificate key in
|
|
PKCS #8, ASN.1 DER form. It must be set, if you specify the optional
|
|
client_certificate.
|
|
|
|
- `bind_dn` - (optional) If set, the distinguished name of entry to bind when
|
|
performing user and group searches. Example:
|
|
cn=vault,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com
|
|
|
|
- `bind_password` - (optional) If set, the password to use along with bind_dn
|
|
when performing user search. It must be set, if you specify the optional
|
|
bind_dn.
|
|
|
|
- `use_token_groups` - (optional) If true, use the Active Directory tokenGroups
|
|
constructed attribute of the user to find the group memberships. This
|
|
finds all security groups, including nested ones.
|
|
|
|
- `account_attribute_maps` - (optional) If set, the attribute maps from custom
|
|
attributes to the standard fullname and email account attributes. These
|
|
maps are represented as key=value where the key equals the from_attribute, and
|
|
the value equals the to_attribute. For example, "preferredName=fullName". All
|
|
attribute names are case insensitive.
