ldap connection timeout

This parameter tells the LDAP library calls which timeout in seconds they should honor during initial connection establishments to LDAP servers. It is very useful in failover scenarios in particular. If one or more LDAP servers are not reachable at all, we do not have to wait until TCP timeouts are over. This feature must be supported by your LDAP library.
This parameter is different from which affects operations on LDAP servers using an existing connection and not establishing an initial connection.

Supported on: At least Microsoft Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 family
