Connecting to LDAP Servers over SSL

To establish an SSL connection to LDAP servers you must have the following certificates:

Certificate Authority Certificate

You can obtain this certificate from a Certificate Authority, for example Verisign or Thwate. This certificate indicates that certificates issued by this Certificate Authority are valid and can be trusted.

LDAP Server Certificate

You must obtain this certificate from a trusted Certificate Authority. This certificate contains information about the LDAP server and identifies the LDAP server with the client.

Note: CA EEM supports only .pem certificates for SSL connections.
