Advanced LDAP URL Syntax
For Microsoft Active Directory, the LDAP server connection will use a default distinguished name of the
form dc=domain,dc=com, where the domain name components are taken from the bind username.
To specify a different organizational unit within the directory, include a distinguished name in the LDAP
server URL, using a format such as:
ldap://192.168.88.1/ou=IT%20Services,ou=Departments,dc=Amigopod,dc=com
To specify a secure connection over SSL/TLS, use the prefix ldaps://.
To specify the use of LDAP v3, use the prefix ldap3://, or ldap3s:// if you are using LDAP v3 over SSL/TLS.
When Microsoft Active Directory is selected as the Server Type, LDAP v3 is automatically used.
An LDAP v3 URL has the format ldap://host:port/dn?attributes?scope?filter?extensions.
dn is the base X.500 distinguished name to use for the search.
attributes is often left empty.
scope may be 'base', 'one' or 'sub'.
filter is an LDAP filter string, for example, (objectclass=*)
extensions is an optional list of name=value pairs.
