Configuring LDAP directory replication
The e-mail addresses and fax numbers in the address book come from several sources:
●
The LDAP server on the network
●
Destinations that users have previously specified at the control panel
●
E-mail and fax address books that have been created by using the HP Address Book Manager
One of two methods can be used to synchronize the digital-sender address books with the LDAP
server.
Table 3-6 Address book synchronization contains descriptions of these methods.
Table 3-6 Address book synchronization
Method Description Effect at the control panel
Using a replicated LDAP address book HP DSS takes a snapshot of the LDAP
server database and populates the
device address book with the
addresses that it finds. The HP MFP
DSS Configuration Utility can be used
to either initiate the task manually or
schedule it to run automatically at a
certain time. As the user types the initial characters
in a name, the device attempts to
complete the name from the names in
the address book. The user types more
characters until a match is found.
When the user selects a name, the
associated e-mail address is
automatically selected.
Using an LDAP address book directly Firmware in the device initiates and
resolves name queries directly with the
LDAP server. The administrator does
not need to synchronize the address
book with the LDAP server, either
manually or according to a schedule. The user types a partial name. The
device shows the list of resulting
names from the LDAP server. When
the user selects a name, the
associated e-mail address is
automatically selected.
NOTE If the device is configured to use an LDAP address book directly, it cannot gain
access to the replicated address book. If replication is used, only the display names and
e-mail addresses are replicated.
