Mapping the Connection Pool Conguration
Directory Proxy Server 5 can be congured to reuse existing connections to the backend LDAP
servers. This can provide a signicant performance gain if the backend servers are on a Wide
Area Network (WAN). In Directory Proxy Server 6.0, this functionality is provided with
connection pools that are congured in the backend server itself. For more information, see
Chapter 20, “LDAP Data Sources and Data Source Pools,” in Sun Java System Directory Server
Enterprise Edition 6.0 Administration Guide.
In Iplanet Directory Access Router 5.0 (IDAR) these conguration attributes are stored under
ids-proxy-con-Config-Name=name,ou=global,ou=pd2,ou=iDAR,o=services. In Directory
Proxy Server 5.2, these conguration attributes are stored under
ids-proxy-con-Config-Name=user-dened-name,ou=system,ou=dar-config,o=netscaperoot.
The following table provides a mapping between Directory Proxy Server 5 connection
conguration attributes and the corresponding Directory Proxy Server 6.0 properties.
