<h2 id="rzahyref-co">LDAP directory referrals</h2>
<p>Referrals allow Directory Servers to work in teams. If the DN that a client
requests is not in one directory, the server can automatically send (refer)
the request to any other LDAP server.</p>
<p>Directory Server allows you to use two different types of referrals. You can specify
default referral servers, where the LDAP server will refer clients whenever
any DN is not in the directory. You can also use your LDAP client to add entries
to the directory server that have the objectClass referral. This allows you
to specify referrals that are based on what specific DN a client requests.</p>

<div class="notetitle" id="wq46">Note:</div>
<div class="notebody">With Directory Server, referral objects must contain only a distinguished
name (<tt class="xph">dn</tt>), an objectClass (<tt class="xph">objectClass</tt>), and a referral (<tt class="xph">ref</tt>) attribute. See <a href="rzahyldapsrch.htm#rzahyldapsrch">ldapsearch</a> for
an example that illustrates this restriction.</div>
<p>Referral servers are closely related to replica servers. Because data on
replica servers cannot be changed from clients, the replica refers any requests
to change directory data to the master server.</p>
