I've submitted a path for JIRA ticket AMQ-358 that provides dynamic network configuration using LDAP. I will update the main ActiveMQ configuration documentation to include this network connector once the patch has been

merged into the trunk. The patch is implemented such that almost any

directory server structure and layout can be used so long as the following

conditions are met: 1) the directory server provides an LDAP protocol
binding, 2) the directory server supports the ipHost and ipService

objectClasses as defined in RFC2307, 3) and the servers you wish to list in the directory server implement both the ipHost and ipService objectClasses. If all 3 of these conditions are met then LDAP network connector should be able to successfully connect to the listed server so long as it is found

within the bounds of the user specified search filter.

see: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-358

The patch adds a new network connector element that provides dynamic lookup

throuhg an LDAP server.  Below is an example configuration.

    <networkConnectors>
      <ldapNetworkConnector uri="ldap://163.181.70.133:10389";
                            base="ou=servers,ou=activemq,o=apache"
                            user="uid=admin,ou=system"
                            password="secret"
                            searchFilter="(cn=myuniquename*)"
                            searchScope="ONELEVEL_SCOPE"
                            />
    </networkConnectors>
