> # Advanced Replica Settings Dialog

> This dialog lets you configure the bind DN and additional referrals for the consumer role of this replica.

> These settings have no effect on a master replica that is not involved in multi-master replication (MMR).

> ## Bind DN Tab

> The bind DN tab lists all of the DN for replication manager entries that suppliers may use when sending updates to this replica. By default, the only entry is:

> cn=replication manager, cn=replication, cn=config

> Add. Click this button to display a secondary dialog where you should type the DN of the alternate replication manager, or click the Browse button to select an entry in the directory tree on the server.

> Delete. Select a DN and click this button to remove it from the list. If you accidentally remove the wrong DN, you may simply add it again.

> ## Optional Tab

> This tab contains advanced settings that alter the behavior of the replica. You should modify these settings only if you understand their effect.

> Additional referrals. By default, a consumer replica will return referrals to all known masters for any modify request it receives from a client. This list contains the URLs for referrals that will be returned to a client in addition to these default referrals.

> Add. Click this button to display a secondary dialog for constructing the LDAP URL of an additional referral.

> Delete. Select a referral URL and click this button to remove it from the list.

> Overwrite referrals automatically created by replication. Select this checkbox if you want the additional referrals to be the only referrals returned for modify requests on this replica. For example, select this checkbox to force the server to return only SSL referrals that you must define above.

> Purge Delay. The consumer server must store internal information about the update status of the replica contents, and the purge delay specifies how long it must keep this information.The purge delay determines in part how long replication between the consumer and its master may be interrupted and still recover normally. Set the value field and the units or select Never to keep replication information forever. The default value of 7 days is sufficient in most cases.
