By going through the previous planning steps (network model, DIT, and security model), you should have some idea of the values for the following profile attributes.
cn
defaultServerList
preferredServerList
bindTimeLimit
searchTimeLimit
profileTTL
defaultSearchBase
defaultSearchScope
serviceSearchDescriptor
attributeMap
objectclassMap
followReferrals
credentialLevel
authenticationMethod
serviceCredentialLevel
serviceAuthenticationMethod
Of the preceding attributes, only cn, defaultServerList, and defaultSearchBase are required. They have no default values. The rest are optional, and some have default values.
See Chapter 16, Client Setup (Task) for more information about setting up LDAP clients.
