Configure an LDAPS Endpoint for Simple AD

CloudFormation Template that creates a NLB for TLS termination of LDAPS traffic versus Simple AD. Please review the complete blog post for additional details about this solution.

Solution Diagram

Here is how the solution works, as shown in the preceding numbered diagram:

  1. The LDAP client sends an LDAPS request to the NLB on TCP port 636.
  2. The NLB terminates the SSL/TLS session and decrypts the traffic using a certificate. The NLB sends the decrypted LDAP traffic to Simple AD on TCP port 389.
  3. The Simple AD servers send an LDAP response to the NLB. The NLB encrypts the response and sends it to the client.
