Title: Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP): The Binary Encoding Option
State: Active
Authors: Steven Legg
Group: Individual Submissions (none)
Date: 2004-06-16
Each attribute stored in a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)
directory has a defined syntax (i.e. data type). A syntax definition
specifies how attribute values conforming to the syntax are normally
represented when transferred in LDAP operations. This representation is
referred to as the LDAP-specific encoding to distinguish it from other
methods of encoding attribute values. This document defines an attribute
option, the binary option, which can be used to specify that the associated
attribute values are instead encoded according to the Basic Encoding Rules
(BER) used by X.500 directories.
