LDAP

The phone supports remote Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directories. An
LDAP directory is hosted on a remote server and may be the central directory for a large
organization spread across several cities, offices, and departments. You can configure the
phone to access the directory and allow users to search the directory for names and
telephone numbers.
The LDAP settings are also available as parameters in the configuration file. See
"remoteDir Module: Remote Directory Settings" on page 170.
After entering information on this page, click to save it.

LDAP Settings

Click the link for each setting to see the matching configuration file parameter in "remoteDir
Module: Remote Directory Settings" on page 170. Default values and ranges are listed
there.

About LDAP attribute filters

The LDAP filters on this page give you control over how directory entry search results are
determined. For example, consider if gn is the firstname attribute and sn is the lastname
attribute in the LDAP search base. The filter <attribute>=% returns records based on the
beginning of the user-entered string. If gn=% is used for a firstname filter, entering "da"
returns records such as Daisy, Dale, David, etc.
