* It does not support ‘Delta syncs’ which only apply changes. For example, it doesn’t include logic for using the `When Changed` attribute of Microsoft Active Directory (AD) to do a partial sync. The LDAP module does full syncs to ensure proper deactivation of end-users in your Mendix App.

***LDAP root directory** – This is the root of the LDAP directory that will be read. You can select any branch which is set up on your LDAP server to be the root directory for synchronization. Your server will usually provide this in the form `DC=``<organization>,DC=<location>`, where `<organization>` is the LDAP/AD domain name, and `<location>` is something like `local` or `org`.

***Is AD server** – Turn this on if you are authenticating against a Microsoft AD server. Microsoft AD servers run an implementation of LDAP.

***Is paged search allowed** – Paged search is useful when retrieving large data sets from LDAP, but some LDAP servers have paged search disabled. Leave this enabled unless you run into problems related to paging.
