Configuring Cascading Replication
Chapter 8 Managing Replication 341
c.
Check the Enable Replica checkbox.
d.
In the Replica Role section, select the Hub radio button.
e.
In the Common Settings section, specify a purge delay in the “Purge
delay” field.
This option indicates how often the state information stored in the
replicated entries is purged.
f.
In the Update Settings section, specify the supplier bind DN that the
supplier will use to bind to the replica.
This supplier bind DN should correspond to the entry created in Step 2.
The supplier bind DN corresponds to a privileged user because it is not
subject to access control.
You can specify multiple supplier bind DNs per replica but only one
supplier DN per replication agreement. To specify your supplier bind DN,
enter your supplier bind DN in the “Enter a new Supplier DN” field, and
click Add. Your supplier bind DN will appear in the Current Supplier DNs
list. Repeat the operation for every supplier bind DN you want to include
in the list.
g.
Specify any supplier servers to which you want to refer updates.
By default, all updates are first referred to the supplier servers that you
specify here. If you specify none, updates are referred to the supplier
servers that have a replication agreement that includes the current replica.
Automatic referrals assume that clients will bind over a regular connection
and, therefore, are of the form
ldap://
hostname
:
port
. If you want clients to
bind to the supplier using SSL, you can use this field to specify a referral of
the form
ldaps://
hostname
:
port
.
