How do I configure DSE with OpenLDAP so that an internal user gets additive permissions from internal and LDAP groups?

I have deployed DSE via Azure Marketplace and need to configure a user to get permissions from an internal config as well as associations with LDAP groups.

DSE documentation is correct:

Setup internal user
Assign internal user to LDAP group
Create permissions in DSE for the LDAP group
Login as internal user to see permissions from internal and LDAP group associations.

https://github.com/rmdave/dse_ldap_example has brief overview of how to set up a test environment - DSE from Azure Marketplace, OpenLDAP in Docker instance, DSE and LDAP configs, and videos on permissions enforcement.

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLl3G86xuJVydH22sJqzGODHebxAmpVc_C are 6 short videos for each stage of the setup and demo.

Feel free to let me know if this format works or doesn't!
