LDAP
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol enables access to a directory server via an LDAP
client. Various personal information is stored there, e.g. the name, organization, and contact
data of persons working in an organization. When the LDAP client has found a person’s data,
e. g. by looking up the surname, the user can call this person directly using the displayed num-
ber.
For connecting the phone’s LDAP client to an LDAP server, the required access data must be
configured. The parameters
Server address
and
Server port
specify the IP address and host-
name as well as the port used by the LDAP server. The parameter
Server address
specifies
the IP address of the LDAP server. The parameter
Transport
defines whether the phone has
to continue to use an unencrypted TCP connection to the LDAP server, or to use an encrypted
TLS connection to a separate LDAPS port on the LDAP server. Depending on the setting of
Transport
the
Secure Port
(for TLS) or the
Server port
(for TCP) are to be defined. If the
Au-
thentication
is not set to "Anonymous", the user must authenticate himself with the server by
providing a
User name
and a corresponding
Password
. The user name and password are de-
fined by the administrator. The user name is the string in the LDAP bind request, e. g.
"C=GB,O=SIEMENS COMM,OU=COM,L=NTH,CN=BAYLIS MICHAEL". The internal struc-
ture will depend on the specific corporate directory.
For a quick guide on setting up LDAP on an OpenStage phone, please refer to Section 5.3,
“How to Set Up the Corporate Phonebook (LDAP)”.
