    Hi Anil,

      You will have channel between your adminconsole and LDAP secure but you can have performance issues
     
        Look the next link and IBM L3 response:

      Slow Logon to Admin Console after implementing federated repository     
      www.websphereusergroup.org/go/thread/vie...
     
      I don't know if the "problem" persist in v8 or v8.5.X
     
      Hope this helps.
     
    regards
