Where syncrpl is a database option, you could define a database for each 
branch in the consumer and define the searchbase corresponding to each 
branch (if you cannot reduce the replication data to a branch by setting 
a filter, where "dn= ..." is not a valid filter).

database bdb
suffix    "ou=bar,dc=foo"
syncrepl rid=1 searchbase=ou=bar,dc=foo ...
directory ...

database bdb
suffix    "ou=rab,dc=foo"
syncrepl rid=1 searchbase=ou=rab,dc=foo ...
directory ...
