LDAP

The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol enables access to a directory server via an LDAP
client. Various personal information is stored there, e.g. the name, organisation and contact
data of persons working in an organisation. When the LDAP client has found a person's data,
e. g. by looking up the surname, the user can call this person directly using the displayed num-
ber.
The OpenStage 60/80 supports LDAPv3.
>
For connecting the phone's LDAP client to a LDAP server, the required access data must be
configured. The parameters Server address and Server port specify the IP address and host-
name as well as the port used by the LDAP server. If the Authentication is not set to „Anony-
mous", the user must authenticate himself with the server by providing an User name and a
corresponding Password.
