NOTE: This field apples to Release 5.0.2 and later.

Sets the LDAP timeout, which is used to query the external Domain Controller duirng cache refreshes and other activity. At any point, if the Domain Controller does not respond within the timeout period, the current operation is aborted cancelled and an alarm is raised. This value should be adjusted only when it has been determined that timeouts are occurring.

Valid entry: 5 to 15 seconds.

Info

If a timeout is encountered during an AD cache refresh, the SBC attempts to load the cache for that DC from the backup file representing the last successful cache refresh. If successful, the partial cache collected prior to the timeout is discarded since it contains incomplete records. The AD Cache Status field is updated to Backup (in the Domain Controller Status window) and an alarm is still sent to inform the administrator that a timeout was encountered.

If the SBC is unable to load the cache from the last backup (no backup file present), the partial information collected thus far will be retained, and in this case, the SBC will not have a complete set of records. The AD Cache Status field is updated to Incomplete (in the Domain Controller Status window). See Managing Domain Controllers.
