 Description   

According to the MMS Security Features wiki page, LDAP authentication for monitoring and backup agents against MongoDB (linux) deployments is supported:
https://wiki.mongodb.com/display/MMS/MMS+Security+Feature+Support

We document this for MMS On-Prem here:
https://mms.mongodb.com/help-hosted/current/core/security/#ldap
& here: https://mms.mongodb.com/help-hosted/current/tutorial/configure-monitoring-agent-for-ldap/

Yet we do not mention LDAP for the Cloud docs here:
https://docs.mms.mongodb.com/core/security/

This is perhaps because the DOCS ticket originally only mentioned On-Prem 1.5 (https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/DOCS-3819) but I don't believe it should be limited to On-Prem.

My mistake. This is intentional for the m5 docs.

Importantly the MMS Classic docs (which is what I was thinking of at the time): DO cover these already:
