LDAPv3 Core Specifications
RFC 2251 "Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (v3)", Wahl, M., Howes,
T., and S. Kille,, December 1997 - http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2251.txt
The protocol described in this document is designed to provide access
to directories supporting the X.500 models, while not incurring the resource
requirements of the X.500 Directory Access Protocol (DAP). This protocol
is specifically targeted at management applications and browser applications
that provide read/write interactive access to directories. When used with
a directory supporting the X.500 protocols, it is intended to be a complement
to the X.500 DAP.
RFC 2253 "Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (v3): UTF-8 String
Representation of Distinguished Names", Wahl, M., Howes, T., and S. Kille,
December 1997 - http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2253.txt
The X.500 Directory uses distinguished names as the primary keys to
entries in the directory. Distinguished Names are encoded in ASN.1 in the
X.500 Directory protocols. In the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol,
a string representation of distinguished names is transferred. This specification
defines the string format for representing names, which is designed to
give a clean representation of commonly used distinguished names, while
being able to represent any distinguished name.
RFC 2254 "The String Representation of LDAP Search Filters", Howes,
T., December 1997 - http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2254.txt
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) defines a network
representation of a search filter transmitted to an LDAP server. Some applications
may find it useful to have a common way of representing these search filters
in a human-readable form. This document defines a human-readable string
format for representing LDAP search filters.
This document replaces RFC 1960, extending the string LDAP filter definition
to include support for LDAP version 3 extended match filters.
RFC 2256 "A Summary of the X.500(96) User Schema for use with LDAPv3",
Wahl, M., December 1997 - http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2256.txt
This document provides an overview of the attribute types and object
classes defined by the ISO and ITU-T committees in the X.500 documents,
in particular those intended for use by directory clients. This is the
most widely used schema for LDAP/X.500 directories, and many other schema
definitions for white pages objects use it as a basis. This document does
not cover attributes used for the administration of X.500 directory servers,
nor does it include attributes defined by other ISO/ITU-T documents.
RFC 2829 "Authentication Methods for LDAP" M. Wahl, H. Alvestrand,
J. Hodges, R. Morgan. May 2000 - http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2829.txt
This document specifies particular combinations of security mechanisms
which are required and recommended in LDAP implementations.
RFC 2830 "Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (v3): Extension for
Transport Layer Security", J. Hodges, R. Morgan, M. Wahl, May 2000
- http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2830.txt
This document defines the "Start Transport Layer Security (TLS) Operation"
for LDAP. This operation provides for TLS establishment in an LDAP association
and is defined in terms of an LDAP extended request.
