h. The Perform Query on option will help control the returns by allowing the LDAP query to be
either on [Mapped Name Field] or [Surname and Given Name Fields]. Netscape and Lotus
Domino will typically require a setting of Surname to allow returns of “lastname, firstname”.
i. Search Timeout: There are two options. You can let the server use its timeout limit by
selecting the [Use LDAP Server Timeout], or select [Wait] and specify how many seconds
the search should last (between 5 and 100). If the search takes longer than the time specified
in the [Wait... seconds] box the user will be notified that the search failed.
7. Click on the [Save] button to implement the changes.
To Figure Contexts for LDAP
1. From the LDAP screen, click on the [Contexts] tab under the LDAP title at the top of the screen.
Contexts are used with the Authentication feature. Contexts speeds up searching through the
LDAP tree by specifying where to look in the tree. The administrator can configure the device to
automatically add an authentication context to the Login Name provided by a user.
2. Enter the default login information in the [Default Login Context] field. This is the first context
that will be searched.
Note: The word LDAP should appear in the login context, for example, cn=LDAP, o=xerox, c=us.
3. Click on the [Save] button.
To Define User Mappings
Fields contained within LDAP structures are not standardized. This section allows you to find out what
results you will get when searching for a name using one of the LDAP servers. Editing the mapping will
give some control over your LDAP server results, therefore improving name searches for the user.
To map th e LDA P fi elds:
1. From the LDAP screen, click on the [User Mappings] tab under the LDAP title at the top of the
screen.
a. The Server Information area will display a summary of the LDAP server settings assigned in
the LDAP Server screen.
b. In the Search area, enter details in the [Enter Name] field and click on the [Search] button
this lets you test the LDAP name search and field matching capability.
c. The information about this user is then displayed against the fields shown on the device. By
using the drop-down menu under Imported Heading boxes re-map any fields you require
against the device’s properties.
Note: Internet Fax users should ensure that the Internet Fax field is NOT set to “No Mappings
Available” in the drop-down menu. This setting will prevent the LDAP Address Book appearing on
the Internet Fax screen at the device. Select the field that contains the Internet Fax addresses. In
many cases, there is no unique Internet Fax address, therefore, regular e-mail address is used.
2. When you have finished making your selections click on the [Save] button.
