Multiplicity

single-valued

Data typeRFC-1035 domain string. The domain MUST be a secondary-level domain that is under control by the institution. Preferably, the institution's main domain name should be used.

Description

The user's organisation using the organisation's domain name; syntax in accordance with RFC 1035.

Examples

uniharderwijk.nl
example.nl 

Notes

  •  In the past, SURFconext used to send the home organisation in the attribute urn:oid:1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15, which was incorrect.  Since 2013, the correct oid urn:oid:1.3.6.1.4.1.25178.1.2.9 is in use.  For reasons of compatibility, the old (wrong) key is also still sent.  It should not be used in new implementations.
  • Matching values against this attribute should be case-insensitive, i.e. the values "uniharderwijk.nl" and "UniHarderwijk.nl" should be considered equal.
  • It is desirable to have the same value for all your users.
  • SURFconext will store the allowed value for your institution in our configuration so we can check that no illegal values are being sent.

Notes

  • Although this value resembles an email address, it MUST NOT be used as an email address. In many cases mail cannot be delivered to this "address".
  • Even though this value uniquely identifies a user, it is not guaranteed that it is persistent over sessions (even though it usually is).
  • Do Preferedly do not use this to uniquely identify users.  Use the NameId instead.
  • SURFconext will store the allowed domain part for your institution in our configuration so we can check that no illegal values are being sent.
