This chapter shows you how to set up a phonebook for the X6004.
11.1 Phonebook Overview
There are two ways to set up a phone book on the X6004. You can create an LDAP
(Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) phonebook, which imports entries from an LDAP
directory on your network. You can also create local phonebook entries via the web
configurator of the X6004. The entries in the phonebook are available to users on your
network via the personal web portal of the X6004 (see
information on the web portal). You can configure either type of phonebook, or both. If you
configure both phonebooks, then the entries from both phonebooks (duplicate entries
included) are displayed to the end users.
11.1.1 LDAP Based Phonebook
LDAP directories are commonly used to store user based information within an organization.
For example, email clients such as Outlook use LDAP to query address book entries from an
LDAP directory. The X6004 is capable of sending LDAP queries to an LDAP server to create
and keep up to date the phone book entries on the X6004.
You need the following information about the LDAP server on your network to issue an
LDAP query from the X6004:
• LDAP Server IP address - this is the IP address of the LDAP server you want to query.
• Port number - this is the port number that the LDAP user to receive LDAP queries.
• RootDN - this is the username used to authenticate with the LDAP server. This
information is configured on the LDAP server. Refer to your LDAP server documentation.
• Password - this is the password used to authenticate with the LDAP server.
• BaseDN - this string identifies the location on the LDAP server where the phone book
information is stored. LDAP directories are divided into subdirectories and you need to
enter the right subdirectory in order to search for the information for your phonebook.
• The names of the fields on the LDAP database that you want to obtain information from.
Each record on the LDAP database contains many fields and you need to provide the
correct field names in order to obtain the data.
