Server address / Server port
Enter the URL of the LDAP server and the port the LDAP server expects database requests
(Default: 389)
LDAP Search base (BaseDN)
The LDAP database is hierarchical in design. With the LDAP Search base (BaseDN) param-
eter, stipulate in which area the search should begin.
Default: 0, the search starts at the upper area of the LDAP database.
User access data
If you want to define access data that have to be used by all users:
Enter the access data for the LDAP directory in the Username and Password fields (max. 254
characters each).
If you want to use individual access data for each handset, the access data is to be set during the
handset configuration (
Secure LDAP
By default, LDAP traffic between the phone system and the LDAP directory server is handled via
an insecure connection. You can encrypt traffic by enabling secure LDAP. This is accomplished
by installing a CA certificate signed by the secure LDAP server onto the system.
Select the security protocol SSL/TLS or STARTTLS to be used for encryption or None to
dispense with encryption.
Settings for searching the LDAP database and displaying the result
Enable list mode
Define what should be initially shown, when the user opens the LDAP directory.
Activated:
A list of all entries of the LDAP directory is shown.
Not activated: An editor is opened first that allows the user to select a specific search area
within the LDAP database and thereby to reduce the number of entries.
Filters
Using the filters, you can define criteria against which specific entries can be searched in the
LDAP database. One filter consists of one or more search criteria. A search criterion contains the
query for an LDAP attribute.
Example: sn=%
The sn attribute stands for surname. The percent sign (%) is a place holder for the user entry.
Rules for defining filters:
•
Multiple criteria can be connected using logical AND (&) and/or OR (|) operators.
•
The logical operators "&" and "|" are placed before the search criteria.
•
The search criterion must be placed in brackets and the whole expression must be termi-
nated with a bracket again.
•
AND and OR operations can be combined.
