The LDAP Access Service supports several different LDAP request types. These request types support the major functions provided by JNDI. JNDI is the Java standard interface to directory services such as LDAP. Each of the request types supported by the LDAP Access Service is implemented via a subclass of LDAPRequest. The supporting subclass for a request type is referred to as the request model, and contains the data needed by the service to carry out the request.
