To configure the LDAP query you need to find out from the LDAP server
administrator what part of the subtree contains the desired address infor-
mation. The subtree is designated with a technical address (DN, “Distin-
guished Name”). This technical address (in the above example
“ou=people,dc=mycompany,dc=com”) can be defined in the web configurator
on the
Telephony
:
Extended
:
Companies
page with the
BaseDN
setting. If the
LDAP server does not allow an anonymous query, configure the settings
User
name
and
Password
for a LDAP user account with read authorisation.
Usage of address information queried via LDAP is activated as the default
setting for all user groups. You can deactivate this function for individual user
groups. To do so, deactivate the
Use LDAP
option in the web configurator on
the
User Manager
:
User groups
page under the
Phone book
header.
After configuration, the information queried via LDAP is available on
authorised system telephone, DECT system terminals and SIP system tele-
phones as well as in the applications “ Forum 500 CTI” and “Forum CTI
Touch”. Information queried via LDAP is considered for telephone book
searches and for displaying names during incoming calls in addition to the
information from the internal telephone book. Please note the following:
●
When you have configured the LDAP query for a company, this changes
the telephone book search for the DECT system terminals and corded
system telephones. Instead of a continuous display of search results, you
have to first enter a series of characters when entering for a search. Search
results can only be displayed after starting the search.
