The eDirectory driver runs in any Identity Manager 3.6.1 installation. See System Requirements
in the Identity Manager 3.6.1 Installation Guide.
The eDirectory driver supports remote connections without the Remote Loader. The driver does not use the Remote Loader because the driver in one tree communicates directly with the driver in the other tree.
The eDirectory driver example configuration does not implement any entitlements. However, the driver does support entitlements you create. For more information about entitlements, see the Identity Manager 3.6.1 Entitlements Guide.
The eDirectory driver supports password synchronization via Universal Password. If desired, you can also use the older form of password synchronization (Public/Private key pair or NDS® password). For more information, see Section 6.0, Synchronizing Passwords.
The eDirectory driver synchronizes data between two Identity Vaults or trees. The driver can run anywhere that a Metadirectory server is running.
