I have two different LDAP ldap://ldap1 and ldap://ldap2 behind a same public IP 10.0.0.1 Is there a solution to make a reverse proxy with redirection ? I mean if a LDAP request arrive to 10.0.0.1 with URI target "ldap://ldap1" , the request is redirected to server ldap1.

The LDAP protocol does not carry the hostname or URL that the client thinks that it is connecting to, so there's nothing for such a reverse proxy to test so that it can decide which backend to forward the client to.
