it is just an ldap extended operation. i'm not sure why would you need
related protocol info but i can refer you to RFC 4511 sections: 4.12 &
4.14 and whatever they xref. you can chase ldap_start_tls_s() api via
lxr link i sent earlier for full implementation details.

LDAP gurus:

Does LDAP have an equivalent of IMAP/POP/SMTP's StartTLS feature,
whereby a connection on a "normal" (non-SSL) port negotiates that it
will begin to use SSL/TLS, and then does begin to use it, on that same
connection, without opening a new connection on a new port?
yes, here is related public api that we have implemented
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/directory/c-sdk/ldap/include/ldap_ssl.h#75

Thanks, Anton,
It's good to know what Mozilla's c-sdk API implements it.
But I'm looking for protocol info, not API info.
