In the LDAP Server Global Parameters panel, select the following:
l
Encryption Method
: The Encryption method defines if an SSL connection is used between the ePDU
and the LDAP server when the LDAP requests are sent during the ePDU user authentication process.
From the drop-down list, select one of the following:
- None:
(No SSL connection) The data is sent without encryption. The standard port number is 389
(the port for no encryption). It can be set or modified from the LDAP Server Settings dialog.
- LDAPS:
(With SSL Connection) This selection uses an LDAP-over-SSL connection. The standard port
number is 636. It can be set or modified from the LDAP Server Settings dialog
- Start TLS:
(With SSL Connection) Use the “start TLS” extension (RFC 2830). The standard port
number is 389 (the same port that for no encryption). It can be set or modify from the LDAP Server
Settings dialog.
l
Bind Type
: The bind operation uses the LDAP user credentials to identify the LDAP authentication
connection between the ePDU and the LDAP server. From the drop-down list, select one of the
following:
- Simple:
The user credentials are sent without encryption. However, if an SSL connection is used, the
credentials are encapsulated in an SSL-encrypted connection.
- SASL Digest MD5:
Using MD5, a hash algorithm is used to encrypt the user credentials.

SSL, you need the AC certificate of the ePDU certificate.
