Application Interfaces
To configure the LDAP query you need to find out from the LDAP server administrator
what part of the subtree contains the desired address information. The subtree is des-
ignated with a technical address (DN, "Distinguished Name"). This technical address
(in the above example "ou=people,dc=mycompany,dc=com") can be defined in the
web configurator on the Telephony: Extended: Companies page with the BaseDN
setting. If the LDAP server does not allow an anonymous query, configure the settings
User name and Password for a LDAP user account with read authorisation.
Usage of address information queried via LDAP is activated as the default setting for
all user groups. You can deactivate this function for individual user groups. To do so,
deactivate the Use LDAP option in the web configurator on the User Manager: User
groups page under the Phone book header.
After configuration, the information queried via LDAP is available on authorised
system telephone, DECT system terminals and Aastra SIP system telephones as well as
in the applications " OpenCTI 50" and "Aastra CTI Touch". Information queried via
LDAP is considered for telephone book searches and for displaying names during
incoming calls in addition to the information from the internal telephone book. Please
note the following:
• When you have configured the LDAP query for a company, this changes the tele-
phone book search for the DECT system terminals and corded system telephones.
Instead of a continuous display of search results, you have to first enter a series of
characters when entering for a search. Search results can only be displayed after
starting the search.
