In my opinion, the use of the idassert-bind parameter allows the proxy server 
to use its own certificate for authentication and to transmit its DN via SASL 
EXTERNAL to the backend server.

The TLS options in this parameter specify the paths to the certificates 
(CERT,KEY,CA) to be used.

And you're right, it's used directly by idassert-bind, but your openldap client 
may not be properly configured when you're testing, this is why I suggested to 
add a ldaprc file to ensure your tests are relevants.
You have noticed I copied parameters from it.

Validating that it's ok with the client let you eliminate the backend side 
configuration issues, so you can focus on the proxy configuration then.

As noted by Quanah, OpenLDAP 2.4 is quite old, you'd better swith to a 2.5 or 
2.6.

My interpretation may not be correct.
