The default uses this structural OC:

## OC8: LDAP Configuration Group Structural Object Class
objectClass ( ftObId:8
    NAME 'configGroup'
    DESC 'LDAP Configuration Group'
    SUP groupOfNames
    MUST (
         configProtocol $
         ftType
         )
    MAY configParameter
    )


and maps the properties name/values to the configParameter attribute.

But that default can be changed by altering these these fortress.properties 
settings: 
    private static final String GROUP_OBJECT_CLASS = "group.objectclass";
    private String GROUP_OBJECT_CLASS_IMPL;
    private static final String GROUP_PROTOCOL_ATTR = "group.protocol";
    private String GROUP_PROTOCOL_ATTR_IMPL;
    private static final String GROUP_PROPERTY_ATTR = "group.properties”;


The rationale is so that other types of groups can be used, for example 
Guacamole’s group objects can be managed by fortress although I don’t recall 
whether we supported props there as well.
