Changing the LDAP server port

the previously defined LDAP server. The default port is 389.
To change the LDAP server port:

press Enter.
Example

Enabling and disabling LDAP over TLS/SSL support
The Set LDAP UseTLS command is used to enable or disable LDAP over TLS/SSL
support.
To enable or disable LDAP over TLS/SSL support:
1. At the command prompt, type ldap usetls, followed by yes or no and press
Enter.
Example
The following command sets the LDAP port server number to 8888:
SLP: set ldap port 8888<Enter>
Note: If LDAP over TLS/SSL is enabled, MD5 binding is disabled.
Setting the LDAP bind password type
The Set LDAP Bind command sets the password type used in the bind request. The
SLP supports two LDAP bind methods – Simple and MD5.
The Simple method utilizes unencrypted delivery of a username-password over the
network to the Active Directory server for authentication
The MD5 digest method provides much stronger protection utilizing one-way
encoded hash numbers, never placing the username-password on the network. For
more information on MD5, see Setting the HTTP authentication method on page 61.
