Lightweight Directory Access Protocol Bulk Update/Replication Protocol
RFC 4373, “Lightweight Directory Access Protocol Bulk Update/Replication Protocol”, is an Informational document published in January 2006 by R. Harrison, J. Sermersheim, Y. Dong. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Bulk Update/Replication Protocol (LBURP) allows an LDAP client to perform a bulk update to an LDAP server. The protocol frames a sequenced set of update operations within a pair of LDAP extended operations to notify the server that the update operations in the framed set are related in such a way that the ordering of all operations can be preserved during processing even when they are sent asynchronously by the client. Update operations can be grouped within a single protocol message to maximize the efficiency of client-server communication.
The protocol is suitable for efficiently making a substantial set of updates to the entries in an LDAP server. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
