Name Bindings and Aliases

The DSA lets you create an alias entry in place of any valid object if you name it using the same attribute that an equivalent name binding rule permits. Name bindings for aliases are automatic, and you do not configure them manually.

You do not need to define an object-alias name binding for every part of the DIT where you can place an alias.

For example, when there is an org to orgUnit name binding, the DSA lets you place an alias under an organization object when you name it using an organizationalUnitName attribute.
