Avaya 1010/1020 User Guide 49
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:
