Overview

To secure data flowing between...

• LDAP servers
• Portals
• Application servers

...configure the LDAP server to use the SSL protocol.

 

Active Directory Note

If Microsoft Active Directory is the LDAP Server, SSL is required if you want to create new users or write to the LDAP using WebSphere Portal. This is because 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 create new users in Active Directory, then you do not need to configure LDAP to Active Directory over SSL.
