AKBK Home :: LDAP :: Attributes :: ipNetworkNumber

Attribute:  ipNetworkNumber 

Description: IP network as a dotted decimal, eg. 192.168, omitting leading zeros
The ipHostNumber and ipNetworkNumber attributes are defined in preference to dNSRecord (defined in [RFC1279]), in order to simplify the DUA`s role in interpreting entries in the directory. A dNSRecord expresses a complete resource record, including time to live and class data, which is extraneous to this schema.

The ipNetworkNumber attribute is also used in the siteContact object class [ROSE].

The trailing zeros in a network address MUST be omitted. CIDR-style network addresses (eg. 192.168.1/24) MAY be used.

Hosts with IPv6 addresses MUST be written in their "preferred" form as defined in section 2.2.1 of [RFC1884], such that all components of the address are indicated and leading zeros are omitted. This provides a consistent means of resolving ipHosts by address.

Equality Matching: caseIgnoreIA5Match

Description:

Servers SHOULD be capable of performing the following matching rules.

For all these rules, the assertion syntax is the same as the value syntax.

When performing the caseIgnoreMatch, caseIgnoreListMatch, telephoneNumberMatch, caseExactIA5Match and caseIgnoreIA5Match, multiple adjoining whitespace characters are treated the same as an individual space, and leading and trailing whitespace is ignored.

Clients MUST NOT assume that servers are capable of transliteration of Unicode values.
