+ | ===== Abstract ===== | ||
+ | The protocol described in this document is designed to provide access | ||
+ | to the X.500 Directory while not incurring the resource requirements | ||
+ | of the Directory Access Protocol (DAP). This protocol is specifically | ||
+ | targeted at simple management applications and browser applications | ||
+ | that provide simple read/write interactive access to the X.500 | ||
+ | Directory, and is intended to be a complement to the DAP itself. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Key aspects of LDAP are: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Protocol elements are carried directly over TCP or other transport, bypassing much of the session/presentation overhead. | ||
+ | * Many protocol data elements are encoding as ordinary strings (e.g., Distinguished Names). | ||
+ | * A lightweight BER encoding is used to encode all protocol elements. | ||
