In LDAP integration for user authentication, what version or versions of the LDAP protocol does Splunk use? Can I choose the protocol version?

In old versions of Splunk (e.g 4.0) it was possible to select the use of LDAP v2 or v3. In the current product is this still possible? If not, what version does Splunk use?

Since the LDAP rework in Splunk Enterprise 4.2, Splunk always uses v3 of the LDAP protocol.
