Currently the range management code is in the generic LDAP provider and can be used by the LDAP and AD provider. New ranges are allocated with the help of a hash value of the domain SID.

If the IPA provider cannot find a range for a given domain it cannot allocate a new range on its own but has to look up the idrange objects on the FreeIPA server and use them accordingly. To allow the LDAP, AD and IPA provider to use as much common code as possible I think a plugin interface, similar to the one used to find the DNS site, to find a missing range would be useful. The default plugin will be used by the LDAP and the AD provider and the IPA provider will implement a plugin to read the data from the server.
