LDAPv2 Client vs
Overview
RFC 2657, “LDAPv2 Client vs”, is an Experimental document published in August 1999 by R. Hedberg. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
LDAPv2 clients as implemented according to RFC 1777 have no notion on referral. The integration between such a client and an Index Mesh, as defined by the Common Indexing Protocol, heavily depends on referrals and therefore needs to be handled in a special way. This document defines one possible way of doing this. This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.
What “Experimental” means
Describes a specification that is part of a research or development effort, published so the community can gain experience with it.
