!!!Supported Features in LDAP Binding Component
At line 11 removed 1 line.
LDAP Binding Component allows anonymous and authenticated connections. Users can perform numerous tasks when connected to an external LDAP system. These tasks include adding an entry, adding an attribute, and adding a value. Similarly, users have the privileges to modify, delete and search for a value, and attribute entry.\\

2    __LDAP Features__\\
||Feature||Description
|Anonymous Connection|Anonymous Connections are those that are not categorized as authenticated, trusted, suspect, or blocked.
|Add Entry Node|Use the AddEntry node to add entries to a directory.\\There are different options available when adding an entry.\\Specify the name of the entry to add (RDN relative to the initial context), an entry with its attributes and values for each attribute.
|Add Attribute Value|Use the Add Attribute Value to modify the values or attributes.
|Add Value|Use Add Value to add any value to any attribute of an entry.
|Remove Attribute|Use the Remove Attribute to remove attributes from an entry.
|Remove Value|Use Remove Value to remove values from any attribute of an entry.
|Replace Value|Use the Replace Value to replace all the existing values of any attribute with any new value for an entry.
|Search Referral|This feature helps you to search for an attribute among many LDAP servers.\\Set up the LDAP referral to another LDAP server.\\This means after the search fails to locate the search string on one server, it automatically searches over the referred server.\\a    __Credential File__\\       A credential file contains the appropriate referral credentials. Use the RCF command line utility to generate the credential file.\\b    __Ignore__\\      Use the Ignore attribute to ignore the referral server.\\c    __Follow__\\      User the Follow attribute to connect to the referred system and continue the search operation.\\d    __Throw__\\       Use this attribute to generate a referral exception, which the client can catch and initiate any action.
|Search|The Search corresponds to performing searches for an entry or multiple entries of the LDAP directory.\\i    OBJECT_SCOPE\\     The OBJECT_SCOPE method defines the search method only within the named object that is defined with ContextName.\\     The object scope essentially compares the named object for some particular attribute and/or value.\\[{Image src='Object_Scope_Diagram.gif' width='466' height='329' alt='Image shows ...' align='left|center|right' }]\\ii    ONELEVEL_SCOPE\\      The ONELEVEL_SCOPE method defines the search method for entries that are one level below the named object.\\[{Image src='One_Level_Scope.gif' width='466' height='329' alt='Image shows ...' align='left|center|right' }]\\iii    SUBTREE_SCOPE\\       The SUBTREE_SCOPE method defines the search method for all entries starting from the named object and all descendants below the named object.\\[{Image src='SubTree_Scope.gif' width='466' height='329' alt='Image shows ...' align='left|center|right' }]\\
|Search Filter|Use the Search filter to specify the context or the first entry for the search, the scope of the search, or any other search criteria and the boundaries to which the search is limited.
|Page Control|The Page control specifies a collection of control that are set.
|Sort|Use Sort to request for the search values to be sorted as per the specified attributes.\\Set the Sort Attributes field with a pipe separated character string consisting of attributes to use sort control.\\Example: Set SortAttributes with the string {cn (pipe symbol) mail} to sort entries by cn and later by mail.
|Security|The LDAP server stores user names and passwords.\\Hence all transactions have to be secure.\\The following are configured with the LDAP Binding Component:\\i    __Secure Socket Layer (SSL)__\\     Secure Socket Layer (SSL) is a cryptographic protocol that provides privacy and data integrity for communications over TCP/IP networks such as the Internet.\\ii   __Transport Layer Security (TLS)__\\     Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a cryptographic protocol that provides privacy and data integrity for communications over TCP/IP networks such as the Internet.\\iii  __TLS on Demand__\\      Selecting this option allows users to establish an SSL connection on demand.\\    *   __startTLS__\\         Use the startTLS function to initiate a secure SMTP connection between two servers using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) (also known as TLS).\\         Once the connection is established all future communication between the two servers is encrypted.\\    *   __stopTLS__\\         Use the stopTLS function to stop an SMTP connection between two servers using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) (also known as TLS).\\iv  __KeyStore and TrustStore Management__\\     The Keystore is used for key or certificate management when establishing SSL connections.\\     The TrustStore is used for CA certificate management when establishing SSL connections.\\v  __Credential File Management__\\    The Credential File Management feature allows users the credentials needed when authenticating log-ins other than anonymous log-in.

       d    Composite Application Integration\\
       e    Code Completion\\
4    __Systemic Qualities__\\
       System requirements come in two basic forms: functional and nonfunctional.\\       Functional requirements define what a system does.\\       These include event driven capabilities which provide specific observable functions to users of the system.\\       Nonfunctional requirements on the other hand, use pervasive nonfunctional qualities like reliability, availability, and security, to define a system functionality.\\
||Systemic Qualities||Description
|Application Variables|
|Application Configuration|This feature is used when the application is deployed and configuration of the WSDL takes place.\\This can be done through Application Configuration without redeploying the application.
|Custom GUI Configuration|
|Logging|Logging varies based on the situation:\\*    Administrators can use the log to monitor system state, monitor for errors, and troubleshoot errors.\\*    Application developers can use the log additionally to troubleshoot their own application code.\\*    Support, sustaining and development can use the log to troubleshoot the product code.
|Password Handling|Security often plays a role in interacting with various external systems, protocols, and implementations.\\Security may take the form of authorization, authentication, or encryption.\\The Password Handling feature also provides a common mechanism for components that need to handle authorization and authentication through the use of user names and passwords.
|Common Fault, Error Strategy|Establish a common fault or error framework. This ensures consistency in fault behavior and content.
|Runtime Monitoring|The user has the provision to monitor the component and the application.\\After deploying and starting the server, it provides statistics like endpoint statistics, component statistics and performance measurement.
|Recovery|The recovery feature helps components to recover from failure gracefully.\\This includes failure of other components internally and externally.\\It can also deal with faults or errors in a manner that does not compromise message reliability.
|Dynamic Addressing|Use Dynamic addressing to extend the scope of an application dynamically through dynamic addressing or invocation.
|Multiple Operation Support|The LDIF parser implementation allows creating a WSDL from a LDIF file, The WSDL can be created with all the four operations in the same WSDL.
