Corporate Phonebook: Directory Settings

3.17 Corporate Phonebook: Directory Settings

3.17.1 LDAP

The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol enables access to a directory server via an LDAP

client. Various personal information is stored there, e.g. the name, organization, and contact

data of persons working in an organization. When the LDAP client has found a person’s data,

e. g. by looking up the surname, the user can call this person directly using the displayed num-

ber.

For connecting the phone’s LDAP client to an LDAP server, the required access data must be

configured. The parameter Server address specifies the IP address of the LDAP server. The

parameter Transport defines whether the phone has to continue to use an unencrypted TCP

connection to the LDAP server, or to use an encrypted TLS connection to a separate LDAPS

port on the LDAP server, or to use an encrypted TLS connection to a separate LDAPS port on

the LDAP server. Depending on the setting of Transport the Secure Port (for TLS) or the

Server port (for TCP) are to be defined. If the Authentication is not set to "Anonymous", the

user must authenticate himself with the server by providing a User name and a corresponding

Password. The user name and password are defined by the administrator. The user name is

the string in the LDAP bind request, e. g. "C=GB,O=SIEMENS

COMM,OU=COM,L=NTH,CN=BAYLIS MICHAEL". The internal structure will depend on the

specific corporate directory.

For a quick guide on setting up LDAP on an OpenScape Desk Phone CP200/400/600 phone,

please refer to Section 5.3, “How to Set Up the Corporate Phonebook (LDAP)”.

A search field for LDAP requests is supported. The search string is submitted to the LDAP serv-

er as soon as the OK key is pressed or when the Search trigger timeout expires.
