DISP Replication

CA Directory implements the 1993 Directory Information Shadowing Protocol (DISP), which lets you replicate information in OSI-conformant directories. This implementation supports the following:

• DISP routing
• Shared configuration
• On-demand and periodic updates

X.500 defines a master-slave replication scheme using DISP. In this scheme, any update that succeeds locally is forwarded to other DSAs according to any controlling bilateral agreement with those other DSAs.
