Sun Java System Directory Proxy Server 5 2004Q2

> LDAP Server Property LDAP Version Tab
> This tab displays settings indicating which versions of LDAP are supported by this server, and which version should be used for communication between Directory Proxy Server and this server.

> Name. Enter a name for this property.

> Supported LDAP version. Select one of the two options present: LDAP versions 2 and 3, or LDAP version 2 only. The default is LDAP versions 2 and 3.

> LDAP version to use. Select one of the three options present: Whichever version the client is using, LDAP version 3 only, or LDAP version 2 only. This attribute tells Directory Proxy Server the preferred LDAP protocol version to use when talking to the backend server this entry defines. By default, whichever version the client is using is selected.

> This option is useful when you have an LDAPv2 client for which Directory Proxy Server needs to follow referrals. In this case Directory Proxy Server itself needs to connect as LDAPv3 client to the backend server in order for the backend server to send referrals back to it. LDAP version 3 only must be selected if the network group referring to this property allows multiple LDAP version 2 binds.
