# Configure LemonLDAP::NG to use SOAP proxy mechanism

LL::NG use 2 internal databases to store its configuration and sessions. It can be configured to use SOAP instead of direct access to those databases (for remote servers). .. tip:

    This mechanism can be used to
    secure access for remote servers that cross an unsecured network to
    access to LL::NG databases.

Since version 2.0, same services are available by REST.
