+In this configuration, the user will need to provide certificates and the
associated configuration information. Optionally,
+if the LDAP provider of interest is operating in LDAPS or START_TLS modes,
certificates will additionally be needed.
+Of particular note, is the `AUTH` environment variable which is set to
`ldap`. Additionally, the user must provide a
+DN as provided by the configured LDAP server in the
`INITIAL_ADMIN_IDENTITY` environment variable. This value will be
+used to seed the instance with an initial user with administrative
privileges. Finally, this command makes use of a
+volume to provide certificates on the host system to the container
instance.
