10.9 Syntax Validation Checking
The current version of directory server provides the capability to enforce syntax validation.
Syntax validation checks every modification of attributes to make sure that the new value has the
required syntax for that attribute type. However, syntax validation only audits changes to attribute
values, for example, when an attribute is added or modified. It does not validate the syntax of
existing attribute values.
Any operation that adds a new value to an attribute performs syntax validation. The following
operations perform syntax validation:
• ADD
• MOD (add value)
• MOD (replace value)
• MODRDN
• Import
The syntaxes are validated against RFC 4514.
