LDAP over SSL

Hello

Thank you for taking the time out to read my question. Your expertise is greatly appreciated.


We have a sonicwall configured with a SSL VPN as well as LDAP & SSO. This way users are able to use their domain credentials to logon through the VPN. In this scenario, when users enter their domain credentials on the logon page, the credentials are being sent over WAN in plain text (unencrypted). I was informed that In order to encrypt the credentials during transmission. I need to configure LDAP over SSL. Sonicwall provided me the following article to assist with configuring LDAP over SSL

I'm usually really good with following instructions, however in this case i'm confused by the following: (Step 1, point 6 above link)

6.In Service account, select the name of the AD LDS instance to which you want to connect over LDAPS, and then click Finish

Screen shot is attached.

I'm not sure what i'm supposed to select here. "AD LDS instance".

Any input is greatly appreciated.


Thank you
