Configuring Directory Connection Properties

Use the following configuration statements to configure directory properties for a component:

To configure directory connection properties for a component:

1. From configuration mode, access the configuration statement that specifies the directory configuration for a component on a slot.

   For example:

2. Specify the URL that identifies the location of the primary directory server.

   On a C Series Controller, this value is ldap://127.0.0.1:389.

3. (Optional) Specify URLs that identify the locations of backup directory servers. Backup servers are used if the primary directory server is not accessible.

4. Specify the DN that the SRC component uses for authentication to access the directory.

5. Specify the password with which the SRC component accesses the directory.

6. (Optional) Specify whether the connection to the directory uses secure LDAP. If you do not configure a security protocol, plain socket is used.

7. (Optional) Specify the maximum amount of time during which the directory must respond to a connection request.

8. (Optional) Specify the time interval at which the software attempts to connect to the directory.

9. (Optional) Enable the directory eventing system to prevent a connection to a directory after the directory fails to respond during an interval in which the directory was polled 10 times.

10. Specify that the SRC SNMP agent exports MIBs for this directory connection.
