Cisco Cisco Content Security Management Appliance M1070 Guida Utente

Use the Test Server(s) button on the Add (or Edit) LDAP Server Profile page (or the 

test

 subcommand 

in the CLI) to test the connection to an LDAP server. If you use multiple LDAP servers, AsyncOS tests 
each server and displays individual results for each server. AsyncOS will also test the query on each 
LDAP server and display the individual results. 

To ensure an LDAP server is available to that resolve queries, you can configure the LDAP profile for 
failover.

The Cisco IronPort appliance attempts to connect to the first server in the list of LDAP servers for a 
specified period of time. If the appliance cannot connect to the first LDAP server in the list, the appliance 
attempts to connect to the next LDAP server in the list. To ensure that the Cisco IronPort appliance 
connects to the primary LDAP server by default, enter it as the first server in the list of LDAP servers. 

If the Cisco IronPort appliance connects to a second or subsequent LDAP server, it remains connected 
to that server for a specified period of time. At the end of this period, the appliance attempts to reconnect 
to the first server in the list. 

On the Security Management appliance, choose Management Appliance > System Administration > 
LDAP.

Select the LDAP server profile you want to edit.

In the following example, the LDAP server name is example.com.

In the Hostname text field, type the LDAP Servers; for example ldapserver.example.com.
