authentication
(1) Process of proving the identity of the client user to the Directory
Server. Users must provide a bind DN and either the corresponding
password or certificate in order to be granted access to the directory.
Directory Server allows the user to perform functions or access files
and directories based on the permissions granted to that user by the
directory administrator.
(2) Allows a
client
to make sure they are connected to a secure
server, preventing another computer from impersonating the server or
attempting to appear secure when it is not.
authentication certificate
Digital file that is not transferable and not forgeable and is issued by a
third party. Authentication certificates are sent from server to client or
client to server in order to verify and authenticate the other party.

cascading replication
In a cascading replication scenario, one server, often called the hub
supplier, acts both as a consumer and a supplier for a particular
replica. It holds a read-only replica and maintains a changelog. It
receives updates from the supplier server that holds the master copy
of the data and in turn supplies those updates to the consumer.
