  • ONTAP 9
  • OpenLDAP

Answer

  • OpenLDAP uses the 'nis' schema by default which does not have the groupOfNames object class.
  • 'nis' is referred to by ONTAP as RFC-2307 - the schema in RFC-2307 is referred to as 'nis' inside the RFC, these are two names for the same schema.
  • If extending the schema to take advantage of RFC-2307bis extended groups the object class used is groupOfUniqueNames/groupOfMembers that allows for nested groups (groups that may contain other groups in addition to users)
