LDAP is a standard, extensible directory-access protocol. It is a common language that LDAP clients
and servers use to communicate with each other. LDAP is a message-oriented protocol. The client
constructs a message that contains a request and sends it to the server. The server processes the
request and sends back the result in a series of LDAP messages. LDAP is also a connection-oriented
protocol. The client opens a connection and performs any number of operations on the same
connection.
For the LDAP server bind method, LDAP authentication uses either the Simple or the Simple over
SSL method. See
Table 3-12 Authentication bind methods on page 76.
