Syncrepl over TLS for mirrormode



From the openldap website the two nodes have to use different URLs like below:

       syncrepl      rid=001
                     provider=ldap://ldap-sid2.example.com
                     bindmethod=simple
                     binddn="cn=mirrormode,dc=example,dc=com"
                     credentials=mirrormode
                     searchbase="dc=example,dc=com"
                     schemachecking=on
                     type=refreshAndPersist
                     retry="60 +"
and 
       syncrepl      rid=001
                     provider=ldap://ldap-sid1.example.com
                     bindmethod=simple
                     binddn="cn=mirrormode,dc=example,dc=com"
                     credentials=mirrormode
                     searchbase="dc=example,dc=com"
                     schemachecking=on
                     type=refreshAndPersist
                     retry="60 +"
I can set two different certificates so that TLS is fine for sync between the two nodes. However we will have regular Ldap client access these two nodes behind a loadbalancer over TLS too. Obviously the client can't connect with ldap-sid2.example.com, nor with ldap-sid1.example.com. So what is the solution to this scenario? Setup a pool of consumers with same hostname?

Thanks,
