User Search
This search queries the global catalog. In a standard AD configuration, all the filter attributes and attributes
returned are replicated to the global catalog.
●Base: <empty>
The base variable depends on the Base DN setting on the Microsoft Active Directory page. If it’s
set to the default, All Domains, the base variable is empty, as shown. Otherwise, the base variable is
the same as Base DN. See Understanding Base DN on page160.
●Filter: (&(objectCategory=person)(UserAccountControl:
1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=512)(sAMAccountName=*)
(!(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)))
The filter variable depends on the User LDAP filter setting. See Microsoft Active Directory®
Integration on page 152.
●Index used: idx_objectCategory:32561:N
The search used this index in our testing environment, using a standard AD configuration (no indexes
added). Results may be different for a different configuration, especially a different User LDAP filter
setting.
●Attributes returned: sAMAccountName, userAccountControl, givenName, sn,
[telephoneNumber], [chairpasscode], [confpasscode]
The three attributes returned variables (in square brackets) are returned only if you specify the
corresponding Active Directory attributes (for generating conference room IDs, chairperson
passcodes, and conference passcodes, respectively) and if the Attribute Replication Search
determined that the attributes are replicated to the global catalog.
See Microsoft Active Directory® Integration on page152 and Adding Passcodes for Enterprise Users
on page 162.
