Cause

  • MaxPageSize poilcy set by LDAP administrator and by default it is 1000.
  • MaxPageSize - This value controls the maximum number of objects that are returned in a single search result, independent of how large each returned object is.
  • To perform a search where the result might exceed this number of objects, the client must specify the paged search control. This is to group the returned results in groups that are no larger than the MaxPageSize value. To summarize, MaxPageSize controls the number of objects that are returned in a single search result.
