Description
Format of LDAP results displayed on phone, where:
• a—Attribute name
• cn—Common name
• sn—Surname (last name)
• telephoneNumber—Phone number
• n—Display name
For example, n=Phone causes "Phone:" to be displayed in front of the phone number
of an LDAP query result when the detail soft button is pressed.
• t—type
When t=p, that is, t is of type phone number, the retrieved number can be dialed. Only
one number can be made dialable. If two numbers are defined as dialable, only the first
number is used. For example, a=ipPhone, t=p; a=mobile, t=p;
This example results in only the IP Phone number being dialable and the mobile number
is ignored.
• p—phone number
When p is assigned to a type attribute, example t=p, the retrieved number is dialable
by the phone.
For example,
a=givenName,n=firstname;a=sn,n=lastname;a=cn,n=cn;a=telephoneNumber,n=tele,t=p
Default: Blank
Can be blank if not needed.
With the LDAP number mapping, you can manipulate the number that was
Note
retrieved from the LDAP server. For example, you can append 9 to the number
if your dial plan requires a user to enter 9 before dialing. Add the 9 prefix by
adding (<:9xx.>) to the LDAP Number Mapping field. For example, 555 1212
would become 9555 1212.
If you do not manipulate the number in this fashion, a user can use the Edit Dial feature
to edit the number before dialing out.
Default: Blank
