Normal Directory Server Bind Behavior

Directory Server follows the LDAP bind model. At minimum, the server authenticates the client. The server also sends a bind response to indicate the status of authentication. Refer to RFC 1777, Lightweight Directory Access Protocol, and RFC 45111, Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (v3), for details.

Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (v3) is the preferred protocol because Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (v2) is obsolete.
