<para>If you plan to configure SSL or TLS to secure network

properly signed digital certificate that your client applications
recognize, such as one that fits with your organization's PKI or one

<variablelist>
<para>Some notes on the options follow.</para>
<varlistentry>
<term>Initial root user DN</term>
<listitem>
<para>The root user Distinguished Name identifies a
user who can perform all administrative and other operations
allowed for the server, called root user due to the similarity
to the UNIX root. The default, <literal>cn=Directory Manager</literal>,
is a well-known name. If you have reason to be paranoid, you might
opt for a different name.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>Initial root user password</term>
<listitem>
<para>The root user will use simple, password-based authentication.
Later you can limit clear text access to avoid snooping, but for
now use a strong password here unless this is a throwaway server.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>Fully-qualified directory server host name</term>
<listitem>
<para>OpenDJ uses fully-qualified host name in self-signed certificates
and for identification when you use replication. If you are installing
a single server temporarily for evaluation, and are not concerned about
replication and whether self-signed certificates can be trusted, then
you can use an FQDN such as <literal>localhost.localdomain</literal>.
Otherwise, use an FQDN that other hosts can resolve to reach your
server.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>LDAP port</term>
<listitem>
<para>The default for LDAP is 389. If you are working as a user
who cannot open port 389, setup suggests 1389 by default.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>Administration port</term>
<listitem>
<para>This is the service entrance used to configure the server,
run tasks, and so forth. The default is 4444.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>Create base DNs</term>
<listitem>
<para>You need a base Distinguished Name, such as
<literal>dc=example,dc=com</literal>, to add directory data. If you
already have LDIF, the base DN you want is the distinguished name
suffix common to all entries in your LDIF. You can provide more than
one base DN if your data belongs in more than one suffix.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>Import LDIF</term>
<listitem>
<para>LDAP data interchange format is the standard text format for
expressing LDAP data. If you have LDIF already, one reason you might
not want to import the data at the same time you install is because
your data uses attributes not defined in the default schema, and so
you will wait to add schema definitions before you import.</para>
<para>If you have a huge data set to import, you no doubt should
also increase the import cache size, which you can do by passing
a Java properties file. You might also prefer to perform data
import offline.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>Enable SSL and TLS</term>
<listitem>
<para>Enabling Secure Sockets Layer or Transport Layer Security lets
you protect the network traffic between directory clients and your
server.</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>SSL</term>
<listitem>
<para>SSL requires its own, separate port for LDAPS traffic. The
default port for LDAPS is 636. If you are working as a user
who cannot open port 636, setup suggests 1636 by default.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>TLS</term>
<listitem>
<para>TLS lets you use StartTLS to negotiate a secure connection
between a client and server, starting from the same server port
you configured for LDAP.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>X.509 certificates</term>
<listitem>
<para>The digital certificate you need for SSL and TLS can be
self-signed and created on the fly. Trouble is, client
applications view self-signed certificates like fake IDs, and
so do not trust them. Self-signed certificates facilitate testing,
but are not intended for production use.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>Start the server</term>
<listitem>
<para>If you do not start the server during installation, you can use
the <command>/path/to/opendj/bin/start-ds</command> command later.</para>
