You can configure your HDX system to display multitiered system directories
or contacts lists. When configured, HDX systems display contacts in a
hierarchical format, where you can select the top directory and search for
contacts within each level of the directory hierarchy. This structure is known
as a multitiered directory (MTD).
To use MTD, your HDX system must meet one of the following conditions:
• Be provisioned by the RealPresence Resource Manager system that
supports multitiered directory structure for LDAP. For information on
using MTD on a provisioned HDX system, refer to
Provisioned HDX System
• If not provisioned, the HDX system must use the RealPresence Resource
Manager as its LDAP server. For other requirements, refer to
MTD on a Non-Provisioned HDX System
This feature is supported using a RealPresence Resource Manager integrated
with Active Directory (LDAP); it does not include standalone LDAP servers or
other global directory servers. For details on provisioning an HDX system
from RealPresence Resource Manager, refer to
page 9-8.
Points to note about using MTD:
• Use RealPresence Resource Manager 7.1 and higher only.
• You can search and navigate up to three directory levels.
• You cannot use Polycom Touch Control to navigate the HDX system LDAP
directories.
• You can enable MTD on provisioned and non-provisioned HDX systems.

Enabling MTD on a Provisioned HDX System

To use MTD on a provisioned HDX system, you must go to the RealPresence
Resource Manager and configure the Provisioning Profile with a
Distinguished Name (DN).
To generate a DN in RealPresence Resource Manager:
In the RealPresence Resource Manager system, go to Endpoint >
1
Dynamic Management > Provisioning Profiles.
Select Default Site Provisioning Profile, and then under Actions, click
2
Edit Default.
In the Edit Profile pane, select Enterprise Directory Settings.
