Reading From An Ldap Server - LifeSize Passport User Manual

on the local subnet that receives the packet and has Auto Discovery set to Enabled replies
by sending address information about itself and a list of IP addresses of other LifeSize
systems that it has discovered.
The LifeSize system creates an entry in its corporate directory for every system on the local
.
subnet from which it received a response It then queries the list of other IP addresses that it
received and the IP addresses that are stored in its own Redial list, but only if those
addresses are allowed by the filters that you specify in the Auto Discovery Subnets and
Auto Discovery Ignored Subnets preferences. By default, the system replies and sends
queries to other LifeSize systems in the local subnet only.
Configure the Auto Discovery Subnets and Auto Discovery Ignored Subnets
preferences to enable the system to discover other LifeSize systems outside the local
subnet and share that information with other LifeSize systems. Specify subnet filters
(separated by spaces) in the Auto Discovery Subnets preference to identify the subnets to
which the LifeSize system can send queries and replies. By default, the preference is empty;
the system sends queries and replies to other LifeSize systems on the local subnet only.
To exclude subnets from auto discovery, specify subnet filters in the Auto Discovery
Ignored Subnets preference. If a destination address does not match one of the filters in
the Auto Discovery Subnets preference, or if it matches one of the filters in the Auto
Discovery Ignored Subnets preference, then the LifeSize system does not query or reply
to the LifeSize system at that address.
For example, you can configure the Auto Discovery Subnets preference to include a large
subnet and the Auto Discovery Ignored Subnets preference to exclude a subset of the
subnet. Consider a network that has several subnets with the IP address 10.* and a slow
network connection to devices that have a 10.85.* address. If you enter 10.* in the Auto
Discovery Subnets and 10.85.* in the Auto Discovery Ignored Subnets preference, the
LifeSize system queries and replies to all LifeSize systems that have a 10.* address, except
those that have a 10.85.* address.
If you set Auto Discovery to Disabled, the LifeSize system does not send a broadcast
message to the local subnet and cannot discover or be discovered by other LifeSize
systems.

Reading from an LDAP Server

When you enable and configure LDAP preferences to populate the corporate directory, you
specify the hostname, login and query parameters, and the refresh interval for reading data
from a preconfigured LDAP server. LifeSize recommends that you use an LDAP server
configured with an H.350 compliant schema.
