request will be sent to the primary server for

n times. n is the retransmission times. If an error occurs on

the primary server and both the primary and secondary servers are configured, the authentication

request will be sent to the primary server for

k times. Then, the authentication request will be sent to the

secondary server for

m times at most, where k = (n + 1)/2, k + m = n.

Configuring the LDAP Authentication Policy

Overview

The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is developed on the basis of the X.500 standard but is

simpler than the X.500 standard and can be customized as needed. LDAP is a cross-platform protocol.

You do not need to care about the LDAP server and client.
Currently, an increasing number of enterprises store user information on the LDAP server, which can

authenticates users and provide corresponding services after the user passes the authentication. The SSL

VPN system uses the LDAP authentication policy to implement authentication of users stored on the LDAP

server and obtain the access right to the corresponding resources.
