Title: Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP): Transfer Encoding Options

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 introduces a new
category of attribute options, called transfer encoding options, which can
be used to specify that the associated attribute values are encoded
according to one of these other methods.
