Creating a standard multi-location deployment
In this example deployment, the PingDirectoryProxy server will be deployed in the data centers of two geographic locations, east and west. All LDAP external servers in this deployment are PingDirectory servers.
The directory servers in the eastern city are assigned to the location named east, and the directory servers in the western city are assigned to the location named west.
|
Password policies should be kept synchronized across all PingDirectory server and PingDirectoryProxy server instances. See the PingDirectory Server Administration Guide for details about configuring password policies. |
This example refers to four PingDirectory server instances in two locations with replication of the dc=example,dc=com base distinguished name (DN) enabled:
-
ds-east-01.example.com -
ds-east-02.example.com -
ds-west-01.example.com -
ds-west-01.example.com
You will configure four PingDirectoryProxy server instances:
-
proxy-east-01.example.com -
proxy-east-02.example.com -
proxy-west-01.example.com -
proxy-west-02.example.com
