The reason I ask is because I use a bunch of storage appliances that offer 
Secure-NFS (NETAPP, EMC UNITY, etc.), but they only support NIS, IDMU, RFC2307, 
and RFC2307bis style Identity Mapping, all of which require manual assignment 
of UID/GID numbers to objects in LDAP, which is untenable for large 
environments.  Microsoft even removed Unix Attribute editor from their LDAP GUI 
for the RFC2307 attributes in Windows Server 2016 to push people away from 
using rfc2307.

I would like to be able to provide a link to an RFC or design document 
describing the SSSD ID Mapping algorithm so that these 3rd party vendors can 
incorporate an identical identity mapping algorithm into their products, so 
that I can use their Secure-NFS product in conjunction with sssd and have the 
uid and gid numbers match up with the other Linux hosts in our environment.
