Remarks

For help in understanding the attribute definition template, see Reading NDS Attribute Type Definitions.

An attribute value for the Description attribute is a string in human-readable format. For example, the object “Standards Interest” might have the associated description “distribution list for exchange of information about intracompany standards development.”

An LDAP schema query requires extensions to return the NDS attribute constraints.
