Identity Collector and NetIQ eDirectory

Carl_Neidhardt1 — Thu, 11 Oct 2018 20:50:13 GMT

Support for NetIQ eDirectory was added to R77.30 via a hotfix "Giraffe." Identity Collector support hotfix was integrated in R80.10, but the documentation for R80.10 does not include references to NetIQ eDirectory as a source (only Microsoft AD and Cisco ISE are mentioned.) Then, in R80.20, support for NetIQ eDirectory seems to be "reintroduced." So, my question is, does R80.10 support input from NetIQ eDirectory via Identity Collector? If not in the base, then in a jumbo hf or just an hf?

The following SK suggests it available starting from R80.20 only (not in prior releases): Identity Collector - Technical Overview

Hi,

The feature is fully integrated in R80.20 (GW and IDC are needed).

Why was support included in R77.30 after JHF Take 308, but then not included in R80.10? Will it be reintroduced into R80.10 with a subsequent JHF?

This feature was only provided in R77.30 through a customer-specific hotfix that you would have to obtain from your local Check Point office.

It's not part of the regular R77.30 jumbo hotfix.

This feature is maintrain starting from R80.20.

To the best of my knowledge, there are no plans to provide this functionality on top of R80.10.
