max-auth-connections

This stanza entry specifies how many simultaneous connections to your LDAP server are permitted for user authentication.

max-auth-connections = {0|unlimited number of simultaneous connections used for user
authentication|any number higher than 0|actual number of simultaneous 
connections used for user authentication}

Use the max-auth-connections option to determine how many simultaneous connections to your LDAP server are permitted for user authentication. This option has no effect if auth-using-compare is enabled. The benefit of the max-auth-connections option is greater if enhanced-pwd-policy is enabled. See enhanced-pwd-policy for details.

Options

0|unlimited number of simultaneous connections used for user authentication
When you set max-auth-connections to 0 (zero), we can use unlimited LDAP server connections simultaneously to authenticate users.
any number higher than 0|actual number of simultaneous connections used for user authentication
If you set max-auth-connections to a value greater than 0 (zero), the number of simultaneous connections used for user authentication is limited to the number you specify.

Default value

By default, max-auth-connections is set to 0 (zero).
