Configure the LDAP servers that the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service
uses to retrieve certificates

If you change the LDAP port number or host server information, you must stop and restart the BlackBerry MDS Connection
Service so that the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service can use the new port number or host server information
immediately.
