+# Configuration for pfSense
+
+## Create a LDAP Server
+
+- Login to pfSense
+- Navigate to: `System > User Manager > Authentication Servers`
+- Create a new server by clicking on the `+ Add` button
+
+## LDAP Server Settings
+
+- Descriptive Name: `A Descriptive Name`
+- Type: `LDAP`
+- Hostname or IP address: `Hostname or IP for your LLDAP host`
+- Port value: `Your LLDAP port`
+- Transport: `TCP - Standard`
+- Protocol version: `3`
+- Server Timeout: `25`
+
+(Make sure the host running LLDAP is accessible to pfSense and that you mapped the LLDAP port to the LLDAP host)
+### Search Scope
+```
+Entire Subtree
+```
+### Base DN
+
+```
+dc=example,dc=com
+```
+
+This is the same LDAP Base DN that you set via the *LLDAP_LDAP_BASE_DN* environment variable or in `lldap_config.toml`.
+### Authentication containers
+
+```
+ou=people
+```
+
+Note: The `Select a container` box may not work for selecting containers. You can just enter the `Authentication containers` directly into the text field.
+
+### Extended Query
+
+Enable extended query: `Checked`
+
+### Query:
+
+```
+&(objectClass=person)(|(memberof=cn=pfsense_admin,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com)(memberof=cn=pfsense_guest,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com))
+```
+
+This example gives you two groups in LLDAP, one for pfSense admin access (`pfsense_admin`) and one for guest access (`pfsense_guest`). You **must** create these exact same groups in both LLDAP and pfSense, then give them the correct permissions in pfSense.
+
+### Bind Anonymous
+`Unchecked`
+
+### Bind credentials
+
+#### User DN
+
+```
+uid=yourbinduser,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
+```
+
+It is recommended that you create a separate read-only user account (e.g, `readonly`) instead of `admin` for sharing Bind credentials with other services. The `readonly` should be a member of the `lldap_strict_readonly` group to limit access to your LDAP configuration in LLDAP.
+
+#### Password
+
+```
+LLDAPPasswordForBindUser
+```
+
+### User naming attribute
+```
+uid
+```
+### Group naming attribute
+```
+cn
+```
+### Group member attribute
+```
+memberof
+```
+### RFC 2307 Groups
+`Unchecked`
+
+### Group Object Class
+`groupOfUniqueNames`
+
+### Shell Authentication Group DN
+`cn=pfsense_admin,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com`
+
+(This is only if you want to give a group shell access through LDAP. Leave blank and only the pfSense admin user will have shell access.
+
+### Remaining Server Configuration
+
+Enable the following options on the pfSense configuration page for your LLDAP server (the same page where you entered the prior configuration):
+
+- UTF8 Encodes: `Checked`
+- Username Alterations: `Unchecked`
+- Allow unauthenticated bind: `Unchecked`
+
+### Create pfSense Groups
+
+Go to `System > User Manager > Groups` and create a new group(s) with the **same exact** name as the LLDAP group(s) used to authenticate users for pfSense (`pfsense_admin` and `pfsense_guest` in this example).
+
+If you want your LLDAP users to have full administrator access in pfSense, then you need to edit the `Assigned Privileges` for the group and add the `WebCfg - All pages` system privilege. If you do not give any permissions to a group, you will be able to log in but only see an empty webUI.
+
+### Enable LLDAP as an Authentication Option
+
+Go to `System > User Manager > Settings` page. Add your LLDAP server configuration to the `Authentication Server` field. **The "Save & Test" Button will fail the test results at step 3. No clue why.**
+
+## Testing LLDAP
+
+pfSense includes a built-in feature for testing user authentication at `Diagnostics > Authentication`. Select your LLDAP server configuration in the `Authentication Server` to test logins for your LLDAP users. The groups (only the ones you added to pfSense) should show up when tested.
+
+## More Information
+
+Please read the [pfSense docs](https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/usermanager/ldap.html) for more information on LDAP configuration and managing access to pfSense.
