To secure the data flowing between the LDAP server, WebSphere Portal, and WebSphere Application Server, set up the LDAP server to use the SSL protocol.

Setting up LDAP over SSL is optional except if you are using Active Directory as the LDAP Server. Active Directory will not allow an unsecured LDAP connection to be used to set the password for a user. If you do not intend to use Portal Server to create new users in Active Directory, then you do not need to configure LDAP to Active Directory over SSL.
