LDAP 3DES password encryption
The VPN Router can store shared secrets that are encrypted with 3DES, but you
must first enable the feature. You enable 3DES by selecting Servers > LDAP and
clicking TripleDES.
For more information about encryption of shared secrets, see “Encrypting with
LDAP user configurable encryption key
In previous releases, passwords stored in LDAP were encrypted with the same
encryption key across all VPN Routers. This enhancement provides more security
on the VPN Router by allowing you to enter a desired encryption key for
passwords.
For more information about the user encryption key, see “Configuring LDAP user
LDAP optimization scheduling
With the LDAP optimization scheduling option, the VPN Router administrator
can configure the time and day that the LDAP database is optimized.
LDAP optimization is a process that frees all unused memory blocks and deletes
any deleted LDAP data structures, making the LDAP database lookups faster and
more efficient. The disadvantages of the LDAP optimization process are that it
runs at the LDAP priority and is very CPU intensive. In environments with heavy
traffic and very large LDAP databases, the optimization can cause timeouts and
data drops.
For more information about LDAP optimization scheduling, see “Optimizing
LDAP scheduling” on page 29.
