g. Specify the URL for any supplier servers to which to refer updates.
By default, all updates are first referred to the supplier servers that are specified here. If no
suppliers are set here, updates are referred to the supplier servers that have a replication
agreement that includes the current replica.
Automatic referrals assume that clients bind over a regular connection; this has a URL in the
form ldap://hostname:port. For clients to bind to the supplier using SSL, use this field to
specify a referral of the form ldaps://hostname:port, where the s in ldaps indicates a
secure connection.
