Automatically Displaying Ldap Contacts - Avaya Scopia XT Series Deployment Manual

Automatically Displaying LDAP Contacts

About this task
By default, an XT Series endpoint searches contacts in a global directory when a user enters a
few digits of the contact name. This is called a manual search.
You can customize the XT Series endpoint to show a number of contacts without starting a
specific manual search. This is called an automatic search. An automatic search equates to a
search for 'any' contact and up to 300 contact entries can be returned.
Automatic search can be slow in conditions of poor network connectivity.
Before you begin
Before you configure XT Series to display LDAP contacts without the user having to initiate a
search, you must configure LDAP, as described in
Directory on page 150.
Procedure
1. Access the customization settings. From the XT Series web interface, select
Administrator Settings > System > Customization > General. From the endpoint's main
menu, select Configure > Advanced > System > Customization > General.
2. From the Search Contacts in Directory menu, choose from the following options:
• Select Manual to configure a manual search. It is enabled by default.
• Select Automatic to configure an automatic search.
3. From the web interface only, select Save.
