It's on the link you provided:

Bind DN
    By default, the DN "cn=Directory Manager" is used to bind to the
remote LDAP directory. Pass the --bind-dn option to the command to
specify a custom bind DN. For further information, see Section 39.1.3.5,
“Migration Tools”.

It is not recommended to import using an ldif.
