15.4.8 Configuring the Device's LDAP Cache
The device can optionally store LDAP queries of LDAP Attributes for a searched key with
an LDAP server and the responses (results) in its local cache. The cache is used for
subsequent queries and/or in case of LDAP server failure. The benefits of this feature
include the following:
 Improves routing decision performance by using local cache for subsequent LDAP
queries
 Reduces number of queries performed on an LDAP server and corresponding
bandwidth consumption
 Provides partial survivability in case of intermittent LDAP server failure (or network
isolation)
The handling of LDAP queries using the device's LDAP cache is shown in the flowchart
below:
