X.521 uses the OBJECT-CLASS macro, an example is:
person OBJECT-CLASS
SUBCLASS OF top
MUST CONTAIN {
commonName,
surname}
MAY CONTAIN {
description,
seeAlso,
telephoneNumber,
userPassword}
::= {objectClass 6}
Question: Is it possible, with this representation, to represent
DEFAULT attributes, i.e. attributes which need not be included
in the object, but which always must have a value, and where
a default value, defined somewhere (where??) is used if the
are not explicitly stored in the object.
If not: How should the notation be extended to be able to
handle DEFAULTed attributes?
