Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) has three well-defined mechanisms for extending the core protocol: controls, extended operations, and Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) mechanisms. In this chapter we describe each of these extension methods , as well as some of the extensions supported by Netscape Directory Server 6, and we tell you how you can use these extensions via command-line utilities and in your applications. We also describe where LDAP standards are headed in the future.
