> Annex C
> 
> Upper bounds
> (This annex does not form an integral part of this Recommendation | International Standard)
> This annex includes all of the suggested upper bound value constraints used in these Directory Specifications, in the form of the ASN.1 module UpperBounds.

> DEFINITIONS ::=
> BEGIN
