Corporate and Personal Directories

The Directories button on the Cisco Unified IP Phones gives users access to several directories. These
directories can include:
• Corporate Directory: Allows a user to look up phone numbers for coworkers.
• Personal Directory: Allows a user to store a set of personal numbers.

Corporate Directory Setup

Cisco Unified Communications Manager uses a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory to
store authentication and authorization information about users of Cisco Unified Communications Manager
applications that interface with Cisco Unified Communications Manager. Authentication establishes a user
right to access the system. Authorization identifies the telephony resources that a user is permitted to use,
such as a specific telephone extension.
For more information on directories, see the Cisco Unified Communications Manager System Guide,
"Understanding Directory" chapter.
To install and set up these features, see the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide,
"LDAP System Configuration", "LDAP Directory Configuration", and "LDAP Authentication Configuration"
chapters.
After completing the LDAP directory configuration, users can use the Corporate Directory service on their
Cisco Unified IP Phone to look up users in the corporate directory.
