Registering devices into multiple end system groups

[tpowers]

Hello, I'm wondering if we can have different end system groups for registered devices based on the login of the user registering the device. We'd like to have a student group that a logged-in student can register their devices, but give faculty the ability to register devices into a different faculty-specific group. Is this possible within a single self-registration portal or can we have multiple links/portals, one for students and one for faculty?

Hello,

This can be accomplished by utilizing the LDAP to End-System Group mappings within the authenticated registration portal.

Inside the group editor you can create LDAP usergroup to end system group mappings so something like: 

memberOf= CN=faculty,DC=,DC= Is mapped to a “Faculty” end system group. 

memberOf= CN=students,DC=,DC= Is mapped to a “Student” end system group

You can then create rules accordingly in your rules engine to provide different levels of access as desired. 

Thanks
