Integrate with Tivoli Directory Server
Tivoli Directory Server and Microsoft Active Directory (connect out only) are supported as directory servers in IBM MobileFirst Platform Application Pattern and can be used to protect the operations console in conjunction with LdapLoginModule provided by MPF.
Since IBM Worklight Foundation v6.2.0, Tivoli Directory Server or Microsoft Active Directory are needed by default to secure the operations console. To use Tivoli Directory Server or Microsoft Active Directory for securing MobileFirst applications, LDAPLoginModuleIPAS must be defined in the MobileFirst application.

- Connect to a new Tivoli Directory Server
You connect to a new Tivoli Directory Server by dragging and dropping a new User Registry TDS component onto the PureApplication System canvas, creating four connections from the MobileFirst Server component to it, and then uploading an LDIF file and setting the Base DN for Tivoli Directory Server.
- Connect to an existing Tivoli Directory Server
You connect to an existing Tivoli Directory Server by dragging and dropping an Existing User Registry(IBM Tivoli Directory Server) component onto the PureApplication System canvas, specifying the IP address and port number of the existing Tivoli Directory Server as well as the login DN and password, and creating four connections from the MobileFirst Server component to the Existing User Registry(IBM Tivoli Directory Server) component.
- Connect to an existing Microsoft Active Directory
You connect to an existing Microsoft Active Directory by dragging and dropping an Existing User Registry(Microsoft Active Directory) component onto the PureApplication System canvas, specifying the IP address and port number of the existing Microsoft Active Directory, as well as the login DN and password, and creating four connections from the MobileFirst Server component to the Existing User Registry(Microsoft Active Directory) component.
