In response to: LDAP Search Paged Results Control -- RFC 2696
Posted on: 09/01/2006 03:41:15 PM
This control is included in the searchRequest and searchResultDone
messages as part of the controls field of the LDAPMessage, as defined
in Section 4.1.12 of [LDAPv3]. The structure of this control is as
follows:
pagedResultsControl ::= SEQUENCE {
controlType 1.2.840.113556.1.4.319,
criticality BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,
controlValue searchControlValue
}
The searchControlValue is an OCTET STRING wrapping the BER-encoded
version of the following SEQUENCE:
realSearchControlValue ::= SEQUENCE {
size INTEGER (0..maxInt),
-- requested page size from client
-- result set size estimate from server
cookie OCTET STRING
}

This document describes an LDAPv3 control extension for simple paging of search results. This control extension allows a client to control the rate at which an LDAP server returns the results of an LDAP search operation. This control may be useful when the LDAP client has limited resources and may not be able to process the entire result set from a given LDAP query, or when the LDAP client is connected over a low-bandwidth connection. Other operations on the result set are not defined in this extension. This extension is not designed to provide more sophisticated result set management.
