Adding a User to Cisco Unified Communications Manager

Adding a User to Cisco Unified Communications Manager

This section describes steps for adding a user to Cisco Unified Communications Manager. Follow one of the procedures in this section, depending on your operating system and the manner in which you are adding the user:

•Adding a User From an External LDAP Directory, page E-2

•Adding a User Directly to Cisco Unified Communications Manager, page E-3

Adding a User From an External LDAP Directory

If you added a user to an LDAP Directory (a non-Cisco Unified Communications Server directory), you can immediately synchronize that directory to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager on which you are adding this same user and the user’s phone by following these steps:

Note Before you perform the following procedure, you must check the Enable Synchronizing from LDAP Server check box in the LDAP System Configuration window of Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration (System > LDAP > LDAP System).

Procedure

Step 1 Log onto Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration.

Step 2 Choose System > LDAP > LDAP Directory.

Step 3 Use the Find button to locate your LDAP directory.

Step 4 Click on the LDAP directory name.

Step 5 Click Perform Full Sync Now.

Note If you do not need to immediately synchronize the LDAP Directory to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager, the LDAP Directory Synchronization Schedule on the LDAP Directory window determines when the next auto-synchronization is scheduled. However, the synchronization must occur before you can associate a new user to a device.

Step 6 Proceed to Configuring the Phone, page E-3.

For more information and limitations on configuring LDAP system, see Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide, LDAP System Configuration, LDAP Directory Configuration, and LDAP Authentication Configuration and Cisco Unified Communications Manager System Guide, Cisco Systems, Inc.
