Configuring Periodic LDAP Server Monitoring
You can monitor the availability of LDAP servers. The configuration parameters include the username and
password to use for the server, the rootDN to bind to the server to verify its state, and an idle timer. The idle
timer specifies the interval in which an LDAP server receives no requests before the Cisco NX-OS device
sends out a test packet. You can configure this option to test servers periodically, or you can run a one-time
only test.
To protect network security, we recommend that you use a username that is not the same as an existing
username in the LDAP database.
