Changes
1. Configure the Pass Through Authentication to use SSL, e.g.
$ dsconf set-plugin-prop -p <LDAP_PORT> -w <PWD_FILE> "Pass Through Authentication" argument:ldaps://dscc.<DOMAIN>:<DSCC-PORT>/cn=dscc
The plugin "Pass Through Authentication" is a system plugin.
Forcing this operation may cause the server to malfunction.

Directory Server must be restarted for changes to take effect.
2. Confirm SSL is enabled.
$ dsconf get-plugin-prop -p <LDAP_PORT> -w <PWD_FILE> "Pass Through Authentication"
argument : ldaps://dscc.<DOMAIN>:<DSCC-S-PORT>/cn=dscc
