27. Set the following Network information for the connection to the external LDAP server resource:

Redundancy

Define whether this LDAP server is a primary or secondary server resource.
Primary servers are always queried for the first connection attempt. However,
designating at least one secondary server is a good practice to ensure RADIUS
user information is available if a primary server were to become unavailable.

IP Address

Set the IP address of the external LDAP server acting as the data source for the
RADIUS server.

Login

Define a unique login name used for accessing the remote LDAP server
resource. Consider using a unique login name for each LDAP server to increase
the security of the connection between the access point and remote LDAP
resource.

Port

Use the spinner control to set the physical port used by the RADIUS server to
secure a connection with the remote LDAP server resource. The default port is
389.

Timeout

Set an interval between 1 - 10 seconds the RADIUS server uses as a wait period
for a response from the target primary or secondary LDAP server resource. The
default setting is 10 seconds.

Bind DN

Specify the distinguished name to bind with the LDAP server. The DN is the name
that uniquely identifies an entry in the LDAP directory. A DN is made up of
attribute value pairs, separated by commas.
