An authentication ID is an identifier that is used by a client to identify itself to the Directory Server for certain kinds of SASL mechanisms (for example, CRAM-MD5, DIGEST-MD5, and PLAIN). It can be used to allow a client to identify itself with a username (or other friendly identifier) rather than a DN.
In most cases, an authentication ID should be specified in one of the following forms:
The string dn: followed by the distinguished name of the target user (or just the string dn: if the authentication identity should be that of the anonymous user).
The string u: followed by a username used to identify the user. An identity mapper will be used to map the provided username to the corresponding user entry.
