Addressbook

Selecting the addressbook

You have the option to either create new directories using the addressbook integrated in
Gigaset T300 PRO / Gigaset T500 PRO or integrate existing directories via LDAP.
The directories required for the addressbook are created in the Folder Configuration -
e.g., a directory for customer contacts and a second for business partners. You can create
additional directories at any time. If users are supposed to be able to edit contact data and
create new entries, activating the checkbox below Write rights will allow the directory to
be edited.
The folders configured in this manner are accessible to the addressbook user in a selec-
tion list, which he can use to change between the individual directories.
The layout of the addressbook view and the view of the individual contact data records is
configured in the Layout tab. The layout of the addressbook is already set up but can be
modified here to suit the user's needs. However, the layout for LDAP folders must be set
up first.
Connection to the LDAP server
To establish a connection to the LDAP server, you will require the IP address of the server,
valid user name and password, and the base directory on the LDAP server that should be
accessed. The format of this data should be in LDAP syntax. Once a connection to the
server has been established, it is possible to select the directories that should be available
in the addressbook in the folder configuration.
Folder configuration
Give the directories in the left-hand column a name that will then be used in the selection
list for the addressbook folder.
The "Private" folder has been renamed and folder "Partner" has been added.
