Alcatel-Lucent 8135S - EXTERNAL PHONEBOOK (LDAP); LDAP Integration and Search

EXTERNAL PHONEBOOK (LDAP)
The Alcatel Lucent 8135S also supports an external phonebook, which means it can com-
municate with an LDAP catalogue server (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol). To make
the external phonebook accessible, an administrator has to activate and congure the LDAP
service in the Alcatel Lucent 8135S.
An LDAP database can contain thousands of contacts and the Alcatel Lucent 8135S
therefore has a search function that dynamically lters the content from the LDAP database,
based on the search characters you enter.
When you have found the right contact, you open it by pressing OK. You can then select
which of the contact's phone numbers you want to dial (work, mobile or home).

Note that the administrator is able to congure the function in different ways, which
means that it may not work exactly as described here.
The administrator can specify which database elds your search characters are used
in, how many hits and which details (name, company, department, phone number) the
Alcatel Lucent 8135S will display.
Contact the company’s phone or network manager for information on how LDAP is
congured in your Alcatel Lucent 8135S.
