2. Use the following table to enter necessary information in the LDAP Configuration

dialog box.

3. Click APPLY to save changes, or CANCEL to restore previous settings.

The LDAP client sends a search for access control lists to the primary server if the
client finds the primary server. The primary server retrieves the access lists from the
LDAP database and returns them to the switch’s LDAP client. If the client does not
find the primary server and if the primary server does not respond after five retries,
the client tries to connect to the secondary server. If the secondary server fails after
five retries, the client times out. The LDAP client applies the access lists to manage
the way traffic is forwarded.

Definition

Primary Server IP
Address

Enter the IP address of your primary LDAP server for
the access control list domain. This address is used
first when connecting to and downloading access lists
from an LDAP server. The default value of 0.0.0.0
indicates to the client that there is no primary LDAP
server.

Primary Server Port

Enter the

port number of the primary LDAP server

for the access control list domain. The port number is
used in conjunction with the primary server IP
address. There are no special overload values. The
default port is 389.

Secondary Server IP
Address

Enter the backup LDAP server IP address for the
access control list domain. This address is used as a
backup when connecting to and downloading access
lists from an LDAP server. If the LDAP client is
unsuccessful in connecting to or downloading access
lists from the primary server, the secondary server IP
address is used. If the primary server IP address has a
value of 0.0.0.0, the secondary server IP address is
used. The default value is 0.0.0.0.

Note:

Setting the IP address of the secondary
server to 0.0.0.0 indicates to the LDAP
client that there is no secondary server.
