    Example:
    # Global Catalog Server
    ldap.gc=ldap://localhost:3268
    # Domain Controller Server
    ldap.dc=ldap://localhost:389

This file is used to map fields from AD with the fields in Luma Intelligent Service Management. Configure it by mapping the application attributes with their corresponding AD attributes, in the following format:
Luma attributeIntelligent Service Management attribute=AD attribute

For more information about these files and attributes, see Configure the ADSync Utility and look for attribute_map.list.
