Contacts
Corporate Directory
You can look up a coworker's number from your phone, which makes it easier to give them a call. Your
administrator sets up and maintains the directory.
Your phone supports three types of corporate directories—Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)
Directory, Broadsoft Directory, and a Cisco XML Directory.
Broadsoft Directory
You can search and view your personal, group, and enterprise contacts in your Broadsoft Directory, which
makes it easier to give them a call. Your administrator configures the Broadsoft Directory in your phone. This
application feature uses BroadSoft's Extended Services Interface (XSI).
Search for a Contact in Your BroadSoft Directory
Before you begin
• Your administrator enables the BroadSoft XSI services.
• Your administrator enables the BroadSoft directories and sets up the directories properly.
• Your administrator enables the Browse Mode for the directories.
