Cascading Chaining Configuration Example

To create a cascading chain involving three servers as in the diagram below, you
have to configure the chaining components on all three servers. This section
describes the configuration steps for creating a cascading chain involving three
servers and is divided into the following sections:
• Configuring Server One
• Configuring Server Two
• Configuring Server Three
Description
URL of the server containing the next database link in the cascading chain.
Enter the following OIDs to the database links involved in the cascading chain:
nsTransmittedControls: 2.16.840.1.113730.3.4.12
nsTransmittedControls: 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.29539.12
The first OID corresponds to the Proxy Authorization Control. The second OID
corresponds to the Loop Detection Control.
This attribute must contain the following ACI:
aci: (targetattr = "*")(version 3.0; acl
authorization for database links";
"ldap:///cn=proxy
To enable evaluation of local ACIs on all database links involved in chaining,
turn local ACI evaluation on as follows:
nsCheckLocalACI: on
admin,cn=config";)
