Directory Proxy Server Configuration Settings TAB

This view displays Settings and Encryptions tabs are related to how this specific instance of Directory Proxy Server is configured.

The Settings Tab allows you to configure the following parameters:

Network. Displays the Host Name, Port, and SSL Port for this instance of Directory Proxy Server.

Host. Enter the name of the IP address of the host interface on which the Directory Proxy Server will listen for connections. This attribute is needed only if there are multiple network interfaces on the host running Directory Proxy Server. By default, the host name is set to "localhost," meaning Directory Proxy Server will listen on all available network interfaces.

Port. Enter the port number on which Directory Proxy Server will listen for incoming connections. Legal values for this field are 1 through 65535. By default, the value is set to 389, as specified for LDAP. This port number must be different from that used by any other LDAP server running on the same host. On UNIX platforms the server must be started as root to listen on a port number below 1024.

SSL port. Enter a value representing the port number on which to listen for LDAPS (LDAP over SSL) connections. By default, Directory Proxy Server does not listen for connections from LDAPS clients. This value must be present to enable LDAPS connections from clients using this nonstandard function, with a value such as 636. This value must be different from the Host value. This option also requires TLS/SSL configuration, found on the encryption tab.

SSL/TLS. Displays the currently selected configuration from which Directory Proxy Server sends to and requires from SSL certificates from servers and clients. It also identifies the SSL/TLS versions for client to Directory Proxy Server and Directory Proxy Server to backend communication.

Connections. Displays the Directory Proxy Server connection backlog value, allows you to specify a maximum number of connections, and set connection pool timeout values.

Unix. Displays the UNIX user ID and working directory for this instance of Directory Proxy Server.

Settings saved as. Allows you to specify a Directory Proxy Server name value for the editing session currently displayed in the drop down box. You may also create a new or delete an existing Directory Proxy Server configuration.
