Note: this component is designated "advanced", which means that objects of this type are not expected to be created or altered in most environments. If you believe that such a change is necessary, you may want to contact support in order to understand the potential impact of that change.
The Seven Bit Clean Plugin ensures that values for a specified set of attributes are 7-bit clean.
That is, for those attributes, the values are not allowed to contain any bytes having the high-order bit set, which is used to indicate the presence of non-ASCII characters. Some applications do not properly handle attribute values that contain non-ASCII characters, and this plug-in can help ensure that attributes used by those applications do not contain characters that can cause problems in those applications.

| Description | Indicates whether the plug-in is enabled for use. |
| Default Value | None |
| Allowed Values | true false |
| Multi-Valued | No |
| Required | Yes |
| Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
| Description | Specifies the name or OID of an attribute type for which values should be checked to ensure that they are 7-bit clean. |
| Default Value | uid userPassword |
| Allowed Values | The name or OID of an attribute type defined in the server schema. |
| Multi-Valued | Yes |
| Required | Yes |
