Using the replicated LDAP address book through HP DSS has the following advantages:

The Simple and Protected GSS-API Negotiation (SPNEGO) bind method is supported. With Dynamic LDAP, only simple bind and anonymous bind are supported. The SPNEGO bind method provides encryption for the username and password that are used to bind to the LDAP server. With simple bind, the username and password are passed over the network as clear text.

Administrators can use the HP Address Book Manager utility to manage the guest address book addresses that users add at each device.

Administrators can choose to either replicate the LDAP directory or use other methods to import address-book data.

The replicated address book is stored only in the DB directory in the \PROGRAM FILES \HEWLETT-PACKARD\HP MFP DIGITAL SENDING SOFTWARE folder, and not on the device hard drive.
