+ <para>
+ In principle the LDAP protocol follows a request/reply scenario between client and server.
+ Unlike HTTP this not necessarily takes place synchronously in a ping-pong exchange.
+ A client may also execute several requests by a server within a session simultaneously.
+ The client supplies a MessageID with each request. The server uses this ID within the corresponding reply.
+ This allows the client to match requests and replies.
