Configuring XT Series to use LDAP Directory
About this task
This procedure describes how to manage the contacts of your endpoint using different types of
LDAP servers. All are accessed using the H.350 protocol, which enhances the LDAP standard to
include video endpoint information.
You can define up to 100 LDAP servers in the XT Series. Select one from the Server field in the
Contacts page to view its contacts (Figure 97: Viewing and editing contacts in Local LDAP
server on page 139).
Figure 97: Viewing and editing contacts in Local LDAP server
You can define the following types of LDAP servers:
• The local built-in LDAP server
There is only one local LDAP server which cannot be removed, and has a password. You can
edit, create or delete local contact details there (Figure 97: Viewing and editing contacts in
Local LDAP server on page 139).
• A remote XT Series's built-in LDAP server
The contacts are read-only when browsing a remote XT Series's LDAP server. You can access
more than one of these LDAP servers, where each requires only the IP address of the remote
endpoint and its LDAP password.
• Scopia
®
Management's built-in LDAP server
The contacts of this server are read-only from the endpoint. You can define more than one
such server, specifying each IP address, port, and its LDAP username and password. The
resulting contact list is filtered to show only users registered to an endpoint.
Important:
If the Scopia
®
Management LDAP server has a Root DN defined, you must specify the
RootDN field when accessing that LDAP server.
• A third-party LDAP server, such as Microsoft Active Directory
The contacts of a third party LDAP are read-only from the endpoint. The LDAP tree must have
the following specific structure and naming conventions:
- The Root DN must be defined. For example, dc=company, dc=com.
