Populating the Corporate Directory
Users can place calls from the directory by selecting a number to dial from a list of stored numbers. The corporate directory is H.350 compliant and can store up to 1000 entries in both an alphabetical and hierarchical format. All users can manage entries in the local directory. Only administrators can manage entries in the corporate directory.
You can populate the corporate directory by configuring Auto Discovery preferences or Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) preferences in Administrator Preferences : Directory. You can enable only one of these methods. The system automatically disables the other method to prevent duplicate entries from appearing in the corporate directory. The status of these methods, either enabled or disabled, appears on the Administrator Preferences : Directory screen. The connection status of the LDAP installation also appears on this page and on the System Information page. The values that can appear for the connection status include the following:
