15、sion) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO
16、and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/
17、IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national
18、 bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO/IEC 9594 may be the subject of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held respo
19、nsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Users and implementors should note the existence of a “defect resolution” procedure in ISO/IEC JTC 1 to identify and correct errors in International Standards through the publication of Technical Corrigenda. Identical corrections are made to the
20、corresponding ITU-T Recommendations through Corrigenda and may also be made in the form of Implementors Guides. Details of Technical Corrigenda to International Standards are available on the ISO website; published Technical Corrigenda can be obtained via the ISO webstore or from the ISO and IEC nat
21、ional bodies. Corrigenda and Implementors Guides to ITU-T Recommendations can be obtained from the ITU-T website. ISO/IEC 9594-6 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 6, Telecommunications and information exchange between systems, in collabo
22、ration with ITU-T. The identical text is published as ITU-T Rec. X.520. This fourth edition of ISO/IEC 9594-6 constitutes a technical revision of the third edition (ISO/IEC 9594-6:1998), which is provisionally retained in order to support implementations based on the third edition. This edition also
23、 incorporates Corrigendum 1:2001. ISO/IEC 9594 consists of the following parts, under the general title Information technology Open Systems Interconnection The Directory: Part 1: Overview of concepts, models and services Part 2: Models Part 3: Abstract service definition Part 4: Procedures for distr
24、ibuted operation Part 5: Protocol specifications Part 6: Selected attribute types Part 7: Selected object classes Part 8: Public-key and attribute certificate frameworks Part 9: Replication Part 10: Use of systems management for administration of the Directory Annex A forms a normative part of this
25、part of ISO/IEC 9594. Annexes B, C, D, E and F are for information only. ISO/IEC 9594-6:2001(E) ISO/IEC 2001 All rights reserved vIntroduction This Recommendation | International Standard, together with other Recommendations | International Standards, has been produced to facilitate the interconnect
26、ion of information processing systems to provide directory services. A set of such systems, together with the directory information that they hold, can be viewed as an integrated whole, called the Directory. The information held by the Directory, collectively known as the Directory Information Base
27、(DIB), is typically used to facilitate communication between, with or about objects such as application entities, people, terminals, and distribution lists. The Directory plays a significant role in Open Systems Interconnection, whose aim is to allow, with a minimum of technical agreement outside of
28、 the interconnection standards themselves, the interconnection of information processing systems: from different manufacturers; under different managements; of different levels of complexity; and of different ages. This Recommendation | International Standard defines a number of attribute types whic
29、h may be found useful across a range of applications of the Directory, as well as a number of standard attribute syntaxes and matching rules. One particular use for many of the attributes defined herein is in the formation of names, particularly for the classes of object defined in ITU-T Rec. X.521
30、| ISO/IEC 9594-7. This fourth edition technically revises and enhances, but does not replace, the third edition of this Recommendation | International Standard. Implementations may still claim conformance to the third edition. However, at some point, the third edition will not be supported (i.e. rep
31、orted defects will no longer be resolved). It is recommended that implementations conform to this fourth edition as soon as possible. This fourth edition specifies version 1 and version 2 of the Directory protocols. The first and second editions specified only version 1. Most of the services and pro
32、tocols specified in this edition are designed to function under version 1. However some enhanced services and protocols, e.g. signed errors, will not function unless all Directory entities involved in the operation have negotiated version 2. Whichever version has been negotiated, differences between
33、 the services and between the protocols defined in the four editions, except for those specifically assigned to version 2, are accommodated using the rules of extensibility defined in this edition of ITU-T Rec. X.519 | ISO/IEC 9594-5. Annex A, which is an integral part of this Recommendation | Inter
34、national Standard, provides the ASN.1 notation for the complete module which defines the attributes, attribute syntaxes, and matching rules. Annex B, which is not an integral part of this Recommendation | International Standard, provides a table of attribute types, for easy reference. Annex C, which
35、 is not an integral part of this Recommendation | International Standard, provides suggested upper bounds value constraints used in these Directory Specifications. Annex D, which is not an integral part of this Recommendation | International Standard, lists alphabetically the attributes and matching
36、 rules defined in this Directory Specification. Annex E, which is not an integral part of this Recommendation | International Standard, gives examples relevant to the definition of zonal matching. Annex F, which is not an integral part of this Recommendation | International Standard, lists the amend
37、ments and defect reports that have been incorporated to form this edition of this Recommendation | International Standard. ISO/IEC 9594-6:2001 (E) ITU-T X.520 (02/2001 E) 1 INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/IEC 9594-6:2001 (E) ITU-T RECOMMENDATION Information technology Open Systems Interconnection The Dir
38、ectory: Selected attribute types SECTION 1 GENERAL 1 Scope This Recommendation | International Standard defines a number of attribute types and matching rules which may be found useful across a range of applications of the Directory. Attribute types and matching rules fall into three categories, as
39、described below. Some attribute types and matching rules are used by a wide variety of applications or are understood and/or used by the Directory itself. NOTE It is recommended that an attribute type or matching rule defined in this Recommendation | International Standard be used, in preference to
40、the generation of a new one, whenever it is appropriate for the application. Some attribute types and matching rules are internationally standardized, but are application-specific. These are defined in the standards associated with the application concerned. Any administrative authority can define i
41、ts own attribute types and matching rules for any purpose. These are not internationally standardized, and are available to others beyond the administrative authority which created them only by bilateral agreement. 2 Normative references The following Recommendations and International Standards cont
42、ain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation | International Standard. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All Recommendations and Standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this Recommendatio
43、n | International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent edition of the Recommendations and Standards listed below. Members of IEC and ISO maintain registers of currently valid International Standards. The Telecommunication Standardization Bureau of the IT
