Measures reported by ADAMBindTest
In Active Directory Domain Services, the act of associating a programmatic object with a specific Active Directory Domain Services object is known as binding. When a programmatic object, such as an IAD or DirectoryEntry object, is associated with a specific directory object, the programmatic object is considered to be bound to the directory object.
This test reports the type of binds that exist in an AD environment, and for each bind type, reports how fast the AD server bound the programmatic objects to the directory object.
The measures made by this test are as follows:
| Measurement |
Description |
Measurement Unit |
Interpretation |
| Ntlm_bind |
Indicates the rate at which programmatic and directory objects were bound to one another using NTLM binds. |
Binds/Sec |
|
| Simpl_bind |
Indicates the rate at which programmatic and directory objects were bound to one another using Simple binds. |
Binds/Sec |
In a simple bind, the client either binds anonymously, that is, with an empty bind Distinguished Name, or by providing a Distinguished Name and a password. |
| Externl_bind |
Indicates the rate at which programmatic and directory objects were bound to one another using External binds. |
Binds/Sec |
|
| Fast_bind |
Indicates the rate at which programmatic and directory objects were bound to one another using Fast binds. |
Binds/Sec |
Fast bind mode allows a client to use the LDAP bind request to simply validate credentials and authenticate the client without the overhead of establishing the authorization information. |
| Negotiate_bind |
Indicates the rate at which programmatic and directory objects were bound to one another using Negotiated binds. |
Binds/Sec |
