| `bind_password` | no | Empty | The password for the user that will be used to bind to the LDAP.

| `user_search.scope` | no | `sub_tree` | The scope of the user search. Valid values are `sub_tree`, `one_level` or `base`. `one_level` only searches objects directly contained within the `base_dn`. `sub_tree` searches all objects contained under `base_dn`. `base` specifies that the `base_dn` is the user object, and that it is the only user considered.
