| <h3>Summary</h3> |
| |
| <p>This module was created to improve the performance of |
| websites relying on backend connections to LDAP servers. In |
| addition to the functions provided by the standard LDAP |
| libraries, this module adds an LDAP connection pool and an LDAP |
| shared memory cache.</p> |
| |
| <p>To enable this module, LDAP support must be compiled into |
| apr-util. This is achieved by adding the <code>--with-ldap</code> |
| flag to the <code class="program"><a href="../programs/configure.html">configure</a></code> script when building |
| Apache.</p> |
| |
| <p>SSL support requires that <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ldap.html">mod_ldap</a></code> be linked |
| with one of the following LDAP SDKs: <a href="http://www.openldap.org/"> |
| OpenLDAP SDK</a> (both 1.x and 2.x), <a href="http://developer.novell.com/ndk/cldap.htm"> |
| Novell LDAP SDK</a> or the <a href="http://www.iplanet.com/downloads/developer/"> |
| iPlanet(Netscape)</a> SDK.</p> |

| <h2><a name="pool" id="pool">LDAP Connection Pool</a></h2> |
| |
| <p>LDAP connections are pooled from request to request. This |
| allows the LDAP server to remain connected and bound ready for |
| the next request, without the need to unbind/connect/rebind. |
| The performance advantages are similar to the effect of HTTP |
| keepalives.</p> |
| |
| <p>On a busy server it is possible that many requests will try |
| and access the same LDAP server connection simultaneously. |
| Where an LDAP connection is in use, Apache will create a new |
| connection alongside the original one. This ensures that the |
| connection pool does not become a bottleneck.</p> |
| |
| <p>There is no need to manually enable connection pooling in |
| the Apache configuration. Any module using this module for |
| access to LDAP services will share the connection pool.</p> |
| </div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> |
| <div class="section"> |
| <h2><a name="cache" id="cache">LDAP Cache</a></h2> |
| |
| <p>For improved performance, <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ldap.html">mod_ldap</a></code> uses an aggressive |
| caching strategy to minimize the number of times that the LDAP |
| server must be contacted. Caching can easily double or triple |
| the throughput of Apache when it is serving pages protected |
| with mod_auth_ldap. In addition, the load on the LDAP server |
| will be significantly decreased.</p> |
| |
| <p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ldap.html">mod_ldap</a></code> supports two types of LDAP caching during |
| the search/bind phase with a <em>search/bind cache</em> and |
| during the compare phase with two <em>operation |
| caches</em>. Each LDAP URL that is used by the server has |
| its own set of these three caches.</p> |
| |
| <h3><a name="search-bind" id="search-bind">The Search/Bind Cache</a></h3> |
| <p>The process of doing a search and then a bind is the |
| most time-consuming aspect of LDAP operation, especially if |
| the directory is large. The search/bind cache is used to |
| cache all searches that resulted in successful binds. |
| Negative results (<em>i.e.</em>, unsuccessful searches, or searches |
| that did not result in a successful bind) are not cached. |
| The rationale behind this decision is that connections with |
| invalid credentials are only a tiny percentage of the total |
| number of connections, so by not caching invalid |
| credentials, the size of the cache is reduced.</p> |
| |
| <p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ldap.html">mod_ldap</a></code> stores the username, the DN |
| retrieved, the password used to bind, and the time of the bind |
| in the cache. Whenever a new connection is initiated with the |
| same username, <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ldap.html">mod_ldap</a></code> compares the password |
| of the new connection with the password in the cache. If the |
| passwords match, and if the cached entry is not too old, |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ldap.html">mod_ldap</a></code> bypasses the search/bind phase.</p> |
| |
| <p>The search and bind cache is controlled with the <code class="directive"><a href="#ldapcacheentries">LDAPCacheEntries</a></code> and <code class="directive"><a href="#ldapcachettl">LDAPCacheTTL</a></code> directives.</p> |
| |
| |
| <h3><a name="opcaches" id="opcaches">Operation Caches</a></h3> |
| <p>During attribute and distinguished name comparison |
| functions, <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ldap.html">mod_ldap</a></code> uses two operation caches |
| to cache the compare operations. The first compare cache is |
| used to cache the results of compares done to test for LDAP |
| group membership. The second compare cache is used to cache |
| the results of comparisons done between distinguished |
| names.</p> |
| |
| <p>The behavior of both of these caches is controlled with |
| the <code class="directive"><a href="#ldapopcacheentries">LDAPOpCacheEntries</a></code> |
| and <code class="directive"><a href="#ldapopcachettl">LDAPOpCacheTTL</a></code> |
| directives.</p> |
| |
| |
| <h3><a name="monitoring" id="monitoring">Monitoring the Cache</a></h3> |
| <p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ldap.html">mod_ldap</a></code> has a content handler that allows |
| administrators to monitor the cache performance. The name of |
| the content handler is <code>ldap-status</code>, so the |
| following directives could be used to access the |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ldap.html">mod_ldap</a></code> cache information:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| <Location /server/cache-info><br /> |
| <span class="indent"> |
| SetHandler ldap-status<br /> |
| </span> |
| </Location> |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>By fetching the URL <code>http://servername/cache-info</code>, |
| the administrator can get a status report of every cache that is used |
| by <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ldap.html">mod_ldap</a></code> cache. Note that if Apache does not |
| support shared memory, then each <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> instance has its |
| own cache, so reloading the URL will result in different |
| information each time, depending on which <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> |
| instance processes the request.</p> |
| |

| <div class="section"> |
| <h2><a name="usingssltls" id="usingssltls">Using SSL</a></h2> |
| |
| <p>The ability to create an SSL connections to an LDAP server |
| is defined by the directives <code class="directive"><a href="#ldaptrustedca"> |
| LDAPTrustedCA</a></code> and <code class="directive"><a href="#ldaptrustedcatype"> |
| LDAPTrustedCAType</a></code>. These directives specify the certificate |
| file or database and the certificate type. Whenever the LDAP url |
| includes <em>ldaps://</em>, <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ldap.html">mod_ldap</a></code> will establish |
| a secure connection to the LDAP server.</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| # Establish an SSL LDAP connection. Requires that <br /> |
| # mod_ldap and mod_auth_ldap be loaded. Change the <br /> |
| # "yourdomain.example.com" to match your domain.<br /> |

| <p>If <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ldap.html">mod_ldap</a></code> is linked against the |
| Netscape/iPlanet LDAP SDK, it will not talk to any SSL server |
| unless that server has a certificate signed by a known Certificate |
| Authority. As part of the configuration |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ldap.html">mod_ldap</a></code> needs to be told where it can find |
| a database containing the known CAs. This database is in the same |
| format as Netscape Communicator's <code>cert7.db</code> |
| database. The easiest way to get this file is to start up a fresh |
| copy of Netscape, and grab the resulting |
| <code>$HOME/.netscape/cert7.db</code> file.</p> |
