Question, about the "manage" Access Level when would that be used?
It is not talked about at all other than Table 5.4 in section 8.3.3.
The man pages are the definitive source for all information. I would suggest you read the slapd.access(5) man page.
Looking at the slapd.access(5) from a git pull just moments ago, I see 'manage' in the "THE <ACCESS> FIELD" section, but not "OPERATION REQUIREMENTS" section. The former just says: The level access model relies on an incremental interpretation of the access privileges. The possible levels are none, disclose, auth, compare, search, read, write, and manage. Each access level implies all the preceding ones, thus manage grants all access including administrative access. <...>
...but "administrative access" isn't described in any of the manpages.
