Polycom CMA System Web Scheduling Guide

However, if the Polycom CMA system is integrated with an Active Directory, the Polycom CMA system uses the LDAP search function for searches of the directory. LDAP searches are prefix-searches that include an appended wildcard. In this case, when you enter a search string, the system looks for that search string only at the beginning of the indexed fields.

For example, all of the following searches for a participant will find Barbara Smithe:

Barbara

Smithe

Bar

Smi

To optimize LDAP searches, the Polycom CMA system (and its dynamically-managed endpoints) searches only indexed LDAP fields and a limited set of attributes. The attributes include:

ObjectCategory memberOf DisplayName GivenName

Sn

Cn Samaccountname groupType distinguishedName objectGuid

These are the requested attributes to be returned by the search:

Sn Givenname Mail

Ou Objectguid Telephonenumber Cn Samaccountname Memberof Displayname Objectclass Title localityName department
