Change PORT for LDAP

I am trying to connect to LDAP. I know that default port is 389 but we have changed it to 636.

I have this part of code

private static $HOST = "mywebpage.com";

// Connect to LDAP
$link_id = ldap_connect(self::$HOST);
$bind_result = ldap_bind($link_id, self::$APP_DN, self::$SERVER_PASSWORD);
error_log(print_r($link_id,true)); //returns resource id #6
error_log(print_r($bind_result,true)); //returns 1

if (!$bind_result)
{
    error_log("Failed to bind to LDAP server."); 
    throw new RuntimeException("Failed to bind to LDAP server.");
}

Is there any way to add the new port somehow? I tried

$link_id = ldap_connect(self::$HOST,"636");

But didn't work.

The use of ldap_connect() with 2 parameters $host and $port is deprecated (also the port should be an integer).

The correct function signature is :

ldap_connect ( string|null $uri = null ) : resource|false

An LDAP URI should look like ldap://hostname:port or ldaps://hostname:port when using SSL encryption :

$link_id = ldap_connect('ldap://' . self::$HOST . ':636');
