Corporate and Personal Directories

Corporate and Personal Directories
The Directory menu on the Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone gives users access to several directories. These
directories can include:
Corporate Directory
Personal Directory
Corporate Directory
Cisco Unified Communications Manager uses a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory to
store authentication and authorization information about users of Cisco Unified Communications Manager
applications that interact with Cisco Unified Communications Manager. Authentication establishes the users'
rights to access the system. Authorization identifies the telephony resources that a user is permitted to use,
such as a specific telephone extension.
To install and set up these features, see the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide,
"LDAP System Configuration", "LDAP Directory Configuration", and "LDAP Authentication Configuration"
chapters. That manual guides you through the configuration process for integrating Cisco Unified
Communications Manager with Microsoft Active Directory, Sun ONE Directory, Netscape Directory, and
iPlanet Directory Server.
After you configure the LDAP directory, users can use the Corporate Directory service on the Cisco Unified
Wireless IP Phone to look up users in the corporate directory.
Personal Directory
Personal Directory consists of the following features:
• Personal Address Book (PAB)
• Personal Fast Dials (Fast Dials)
• Address Book Synchronization Tool (TABSynch)
Users can configure personal directory entries on the Cisco Unified IP Phone. To configure a personal directory,
users must have access to the following:
