Can I configure an Active Directory AAA server to use SSL to my DCs?

I need all communications from my F5 to be encrypted. I currently use Secure LDAP to authenticate my AD users, but I need the functionality that the AD AAA server provides as far as users changing passwords, etc. Is it possible to configure an AD AAA server to use SSL to the domain controllers?

 

Thanks!

    F5 APM is using Kerberos for communication with AD controllers when AD type of AAA is specified - so there is no need to use SSL. SSL is only applicable to secure LDAP traffic.
