Hello Community,
we have a DMS with a connection to an Active Directory using default LDAP port 389/tcp.
Now the customer asked to change the port to 636/tcp in order to change to LDAPS (with TSL/SSL encryption). Does DataMiner change the communication protocol to LDAPS automatically, when the port is changed?
Both ports are working fine from DataMiner perspective. It is just not clear yet, if the connection is using LDAPS or not. Is there a way to verfiy that?
Many thansk
Hi Andre,
Please check the section Remarks regarding LDAP settings in DataMiner Help – Configuring LDAP settings:
To connect to the LDAP server with SSL, from DataMiner 9.5.6 onwards, specify the attribute useSSL=true in the LDAP tag. The password is encrypted after the first usage. (Default SSL port: 636)
In order to connect to the LDAP server using SSL, you will need to add the attribute useSSL = true
Many thanks for the feedback last year!
This answer is resolving my questions around LDAPS. The thread could be marked as “Solved”.
