Controls and Extended
Operations
The rootDSE contains attributes described containing OID. These
are the controls and extended operations supported by the DSA.
In LDAPv3, a control is a way for a client to specify additional
information about how a query should be processed (Example: sort the
results by cn).

Extended operations are used to implement both standard and
proprietary operations.
