Specifying attributes for display on the phone
In the web configurator you specify which of the available attributes from the LDAP database are
to be queried and displayed on the phone.
For each attribute of a directory entry, select the appropriate attribute from the LDAP data-
base. There are predefined settings at choice. Alternatively you can enter manually a
different attribute defined in the LDAP database for this field.
If an attribute is not to be displayed, select the option none.
In the Additional attribute field, you can enter an additional attribute that is available in the
LDAP database and should be displayed. If the attribute is a number to be dialled, the option
Additional attribute can be dialled must be checked.
The attributes First name and Surname will be used for the following functions:
•
Display in the list of directory entries in the form Surname, First name
•
Alphabetical sorting of the directory entries on the phone
•
Name display of a caller or call participant
If the database query only produces one of the attribute values (e.g. because a contact is only
stored with their first name), only this one will be displayed.
Display on the handsets
If one or more LDAP directories are set up in the web configurator, they will be available on the
handsets with the following functions:
•
Scroll through directory or search for directory entries,
•
Display directory entries with detailed information (no edit or delete),
•
Dial phone numbers directly from the directory,
•
Add directory entries to the local directory.
When a phone number is entered or a call comes in, the directory is automatically searched for
an entry that matches the phone number. If an entry is found, the name is displayed instead of
the phone number.
