Ldap Server; Ldap Server Configurations - Grandstream Networks UCM6100 Series User Manual

LDAP Server

The UCM6100 has an embedded LDAP server for users to manage corporate phonebook in a centralized
manner.
•
By default, the LDAP server has generated the first phonebook with PBX DN "ou=pbx,dc=pbx,dc=com"
based on the UCM6100 user extensions already.
•
Users could add new phonebook with a different Phonebook DN for other external contacts. For example,
"ou=people,dc=pbx,dc=com".
•
All the phonebooks in the UCM6100 LDAP server have the same Base DN "dc=pbx,dc=com".
Term Explanation:
cn= Common Name
ou= Organization Unit
dc= Domain Component
These are all parts of the LDAP data Interchange Format, according to RFC 2849, which is how the LDAP tree
is filtered.
If users have the Grandstream phone provisioned by the UCM6100, the LDAP directory will be set up on the
phone and can be used right away for users to access all phonebooks.
Additionally, users could manually configure the LDAP client settings to manipulate the built-in LDAP server on
the UCM6100. If the UCM6100 has multiple LDAP phonebooks created, in the LDAP client configuration, users
could use "dc=pbx,dc=com" as Base DN to have access to all phonebooks on the UCM6100 LDAP server, or
use a specific phonebook DN, for example "ou=people,dc=pbx,dc=com", to access to phonebook with
Phonebook DN "ou=people,dc=pbx,dc=com " only.
UCM can also act as a LDAP client to download phonebook entries from another LDAP server.
To access LDAP server and client settings, go to Web GUI→Settings→LDAP Server.
