Definition
This attribute corresponds to a naming context the server is mastering or shadowing. When the server does not master any information (for example, it is an LDAP gateway to a public X.500 directory), this attribute will be absent. When the server believes it contains the entire directory, the attribute will have a single value, and that value will be the empty string (indicating the null DN of the root). This attribute permits a client contacting a server to choose suitable base objects for searching.
For example:
