Documentation from RFC 3280:

Attribute data types:

    Attribute       ::=     SEQUENCE {
          type              AttributeType,
          values    SET OF AttributeValue }
                -- at least one value is required

    AttributeType           ::=  OBJECT IDENTIFIER

    AttributeValue          ::=  ANY

    AttributeTypeAndValue           ::=     SEQUENCE {
            type    AttributeType,
            value   AttributeValue }

    

Suggested naming attributes: Definition of the following information object set may be augmented to meet local requirements. Note that deleting members of the set may prevent interoperability with conforming implementations./p>

Presented in pairs: the AttributeType followed by the type definition for the corresponding AttributeValue
