Important:
If the Equinox 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 Polycom CMA The contacts are read-only. 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.
• A generic LDAP server, such as Microsoft Active Directory.
The contacts of the generic 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.
- All users (inetOrgPerson entities) must be located under an organizational unit (ou) in the
LDAP tree. For example, ou=people.
- All endpoints (commObject entities) must be listed under an organizational unit called
h323Identity if they are to work with H.323, and SIPIdentity if they are to work as SIP
endpoints.
Since the XT Series works both as an H.323 and a SIP endpoint, all XT Series
commObject s should be listed under both organizational units.
- Each endpoint is represented by a commObject with its commUniqueId. Each
commObject contains the details of accessing this endpoint, and the user associated with
it. Define the following fields:

- Each user (inetOrgPerson entity) must have its commURI field pointing to the user's
endpoint (commObject ID). For example:
ldap://123.456.789.012/ou=h323identity,dc=company,dc=com??sub?(commUniqueId=6)
XT5000
where commUniqueId refers to the commObject ID.
A centralized solution like Equinox Management enables synchronizing the same list of contacts
across all the endpoints in your organization, and has other benefits like remote centralized
