This figure shows a directory information tree for a company named Acme. The tree
has two branches, each for an employee named Anne Smith. The left branch represents
the Anne Smith who works in sales, in the US. The other branch represents the
Anne Smith who works in server development, in the UK. Both branches share a common
node, called root. The branch on
the right proceeds downward as follows: beginning from the top node, called root,
to o=acme, then to c=uk,
then ou=Server Development, and,
finally, to cn=Anne Smith. The
left branch proceeds similarly: from the root node to o=acme,
to c=us, to ou=Sales,
and, finally, to cn=Anne Smith.
