Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 Administrator's Guide

• Because no attributes are specified, the search returns all attributes.
• Because the search scope is sub, the search encompasses the base entry
dc=example,dc=com and entries at all levels under the base entry.
Example 5.
The following LDAP URL specifies a search for the object class for all entries one level under
dc=example,dc=com:
ldap://ldap.example.com/dc=example,dc=com?objectClass?one
• Because the search scope is one, the search encompasses all entries one level under the
base entry dc=example,dc=com. The search scope does not include the base entry.
• Because no filter is specified, the directory uses the default filter (objectclass=*).
NOTE
The syntax for LDAP URLs does not include any means for specifying
credentials or passwords. Search requests initiated through LDAP URLs are
unauthenticated, unless the LDAP client that supports LDAP URLs provides an
authentication mechanism.
