Overview#
LDAP Grouping of Related Operations is used to identify requests and responses as belonging to a grouping of operations.The groupingControl is a supportedControl where the controlType is the object identifier groupingControlOID, the criticality is TRUE, and the controlValue is a BER-encoded groupingControlValue:
groupingControlOID ::= "IANA-ASSIGNED-OID.6"
groupingControlValue ::= SEQUENCE {
groupingCookie [0] groupCookie,
groupValue [1] OCTET STRING OPTIONAL
}
where groupingCookie is a cookie uniquely identifying the grouping and groupingValue contains a type specific payload.
The value groupingControlOID SHOULD be listed as a value of supportedControl in the root DSE by servers which support this control.
The control SHALL NOT appear multiple times in the same LDAP PDU. If multiple occurrences of the control are detected, the PDU SHALL be treated as a protocol error.
