Corporate Directory Setup

The Corporate Directory allows a user to look up phone numbers for coworkers. To support this feature, you
must configure corporate directories.
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 interface with Cisco Unified Communications Manager. Authentication establishes user
rights to access the system. Authorization identifies the telephony resources that a user is permitted to use,
such as a specific phone extension.
For more information, see "Understanding Directory Numbers" in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager
System Guide.
After you complete the LDAP directory configuration, users can use the Corporate Directory service on their
phone to look up users in the corporate directory.

Personal Directory Setup

The Personal Directory allows a user to store a set of personal numbers.
Personal Directory consists of the following features:
• Personal Address Book (PAB)
• Speed Dials
• Address Book Synchronization Tool (TABSynch)
Users can use these methods to access Personal Directory features:
• From a web browser: Users can access the PAB and Speed Dials features from the Cisco Unified
