-.B subtree\-exclude "<DN>"
-This directive instructs back-meta to ignore the current target
-for operations whose requestDN is subordinate to
-.BR DN .
+.B subtree\-{exclude|include} "<rule>"
+This directive allows to indicate what subtrees are actually served
+by a target.
+The syntax of the supported rules is
+
+\fB<rule>: [dn[.<style>]:]<pattern>\fP
+
+\fB<style>: subtree|children|regex\fP
+
+When \fB<style>\fP is either \fBsubtree\fP or \fBchildren\fP
+the \fB<pattern>\fP is a DN that must be within the naming context
+served by the target.
+When \fB<style>\fP is \fBregex\fP the \fB<pattern>\fP is a
+.BR regex (5)
+pattern.
+If the \fBdn.<style>:\fP prefix is omitted, \fBdn.subtree:\fP
+is implicitly assumed for backward compatibility.
+
+In the
+.B subtree\-exclude
+form if the \fIrequest DN\fP matches at least one rule,
+the target is not considered while fulfilling the request;
+otherwise, the target is considered based on the value of the \fIrequest DN\fP.
+When the request is a search, also the \fIscope\fP is considered.
