LDAP Directory
With the LDAP Directory feature, you can search contacts in available Lightweight Directory
Access Protocol (LDAP) directories. An LDAP directory option appears at the top of the Contacts
application list.
You can also select an LDAP directory as your contact search source. This selection disables
other search sources. When LDAP directory is an active search source, if you select another
search source, this selection disables LDAP directory search.
You can enter multiple search keywords and view up to 49 attributes for each match, such as
personal names, addresses, job titles and telephone numbers.
You can add frequently used LDAP contacts to your local Contacts with the help of the +Contact
soft key.
You can combine any found LDAP contact with an existing local contact with the help of the
Combine soft key.
In 3PCC environment, this feature is not available for CCMS mode.
