Remarks

The only modifications clients can make to existing object class definitions is the addition of optional attributes. No other characteristic of the object class definition can be changed.

The className parameter identifies the object class to which optional attributes will be added.

The optionalAttrs parameter points to a request buffer containing a list of attribute names to be added to the optional attribute list of the object class definition.
