• Sun ONE Directory Server
• Open LDAP Directory Server
• Microsoft Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM)
The biggest advantage of LDAP is that users can quickly find contacts from the LDAP server rather than maintaining
the local directory. The contact information returned by the LDAP server is read-only, and the user can call an LDAP
contact, but cannot add, edit, or delete the LDAP contact. The administrator can configure the filtering conditions of
the LDAP request on the devices, such as the number of displayed contacts, the returned information, and how to sort
contacts.
The method about how the devices search for contacts on LDAP is described as below:
• Enter the content you want to search in the Dialing interface (ensure that the callee has enabled the LDAP in the
matching list).
• In the Contact interface, select the “Colleague” group to go to the LDAP search interface and enter the desired
content.
The device sends a search request to the LDAP server, and the LDAP server will search all contacts according to the
input content and the filtering condition, and then return the matched result to the device.
