> The intent of the Ranger Admin properties {{{}ranger.ldap.group.searchbase{}}}, {{ranger.ldap.group.searchfilter}} and {{ranger.ldap.group.roleattribute}} is to provide a mechanism to map the user's LDAP groups to Ranger roles dynamically. For example, if the user belongs to the LDAP group {{{}sys_admin{}}}, it will automatically be assigned to the {{ROLE_SYS_ADMIN}} role in Ranger.
> The [{{RangerAuthenticationProvider.getLdapAuthentication()}}|https://github.com/apache/ranger/blob/e9b1e1d5f2009e90c6bbf912d5039bdafe319a5c/security-admin/src/main/java/org/apache/ranger/security/handler/RangerAuthenticationProvider.java#L185] and [{{RangerAuthenticationProvider.getLdapBindAuthentication()}}|https://github.com/apache/ranger/blob/e9b1e1d5f2009e90c6bbf912d5039bdafe319a5c/security-admin/src/main/java/org/apache/ranger/security/handler/RangerAuthenticationProvider.java#L512] methods define the parameters above and use them to correctly configure a {{{}DefaultLdapAuthoritiesPopulator{}}}.
> The configured populator, though, is never used to fetch the {{GrantedAuthorities}} from LDAP. The [{{getAuthorities()}} method|https://github.com/apache/ranger/blob/e9b1e1d5f2009e90c6bbf912d5039bdafe319a5c/security-admin/src/main/java/org/apache/ranger/security/handler/RangerAuthenticationProvider.java#L639-L646] simply returns the roles assigned in Ranger and completely ignores the populator configured previously.
