CA Directory supports Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), which allows and any LDAP-conformant client to access CA Directory.
LDAP is fully integrated with CA Directory and provides greater performance and efficiency than gateway approaches. Another advantage of integrated LDAP is that it obeys the DSA schema. This means that you configure a new schema only once, because both LDAP and DAP protocols share the same configuration.
CA Directory also supports the integration of LDAP servers into a distributed directory backbone. CA Directory can send requests to one or more LDAP servers and process the results returned from them as if they were normal X.500 directory hosts. This enables LDAP servers to be integrated into a fully distributed directory framework.
