instead of SSL encryption. This method is the least secure and automatically sets
the Port Number field to a default port number of 389.

server certificates will be trusted and automatically accepted by the DSView 3
software for transmitting data. This SSL method provides medium security and
automatically sets the Port Number field to a default port number of 636.
This encryption mode is not recommended for wide area networks (WANs).
•Click Use SSL in Certificate-based Trust Mode to use SSL encryption for data
