Dear Sir/Madam, We are the subsidiary company of FujiXerox & Xerox and authorized partner for Dell(Imaging). We help Dell to design and implement for their own brand printers. We have a doubt that related to the LDAP Authentication implementation in
our products(MFP Printer Dell C3765dnf) and would like to seek for your professional advise so we have better same interpretation, understanding and aligned with RFC 4513. Our current implementation supports the Anonymous authentication(5.1.1) but does not support the Unauthenticated authentication(5.1.2) for the printer. Question need your confirmation & clarification(http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4513.txt): 1. We sees both the Anonymous authentication (5.1.1) and the Unauthenticated authentication (5.1.2) are optional since the sections begin with the word "MAY". MAY means truly optional according to RFC2119. Can you confirm our understanding
are correct? 2. RFC 4513: Section 5.1.1 (Anonymous Authentication Mechanism of Simple Bind) a. Is our current implementation compliance with this section? 3. RFC 4513: Section 5.1.2 (Unauthenticated Authentication Mechanism of Simple Bind) a. Is our current implementation compliance with this section? b. Current Dell's products authentication allowed user saving of blank password without prompting error message upon user in Embedded Web Service page. Does this behavior compliance with this section? 4. Kindly advice on how to ensure our implementation is compliance with the RFC 4513? Please help to forward my request to the corresponding person if you are not the right one to answer. Looking forward to your respond soon. Thank you very much.
