Use this form to map corporate directory (LDAP) user data to the MiVoice Business user data.
MiVoice Business, via the Integrated Directory Services (IDS) application, uses the map to convert LDAP queries that it receives from the directory server into internal User Service Data recognized by MiVoice Business. The mapping enables you to reuse information in the corporate LDAP directory to provision MiVoice Business users .
If a user service data field has a mapped LDAP attribute that is not set from the directory server or is not returned from an LDAP query, then "default handling" is used to program the field on MiVoice Business. The following default handling options are available:
None - Default handling is not applied. If the field is blank, it remains blank.
Template - A User and Service Template provides the missing value. If the user role is known, its template is used. Otherwise, the default template is used.
System Defined - Default handling is applied by the system. For details, see the field descriptions below.
In the current release, the form provides mapping for the Microsoft Active Directory (AD) service. Support for other directory services will be added in a later release.
Use this form when performing the following tasks:
For more information:
NOTE: MiVoice Business also provides a built-in LDAP server and an interface to servers running OpenLDAP, an open source implementation of LDAP. Both are used by 69xx IP Phones to populate its native Phone Book application with user data. For more information, see LDAP Client Configuration.
The form is programmed with a default set of LDAP attributes for Microsoft Active Directory (AD). Update the values only if your server is using non-default LDAP attributes.
LDAP attributes must be programmed for the following User Service Data fields: First Name, Last Name, and User ID. All other fields can have blank LDAP Attributes, which enables them to be updated from a User and Service Template or the directory server, or to remain blank. To clear all non-essential fields, click the Clear button.
When updating an LDAP attribute in the map, bear in mind that it should:
belong to the user object class
be programmable from a GUI tool such as the Users and Computers console
use the same syntax as the user service data (for example, "User ID" and "ObjectGUID" both contain GUID)
be single-valued (recommended but not essential)
be included in the Global Catalog PAS if you intend to synchronize with the GC for all domains in your network; for more information, see IDS General Guidelines and Limitations
LDAP attributes must be unique.

LDAP Attribute A default set of LDAP attributes for Microsoft Active Directory (AD). Update the values only if your server is using non-default LDAP attributes |
Default Handling Defines how to program fields on MiVoice Business when a user service data field has a mapped LDAP attribute that is not set from the directory server or is not returned from an LDAP query. |
||
First Name |
Enter the LDAP attribute for the user first name. Default handling is always "System Defined." If both this field and the Last Name are blank, the update fails and is posted to the IDS Data Management form with an "application error" status. NOTE: An LDAP attribute must be programmed for this field. |
givenName |
System Defined |
Last Name |
Enter the LDAP attribute for the user last name. Default handling is always "System Defined." If both this field and the First Name are blank, the update fails and is posted to the IDS Data Management form with an "application error" status. NOTE: An LDAP attribute must be programmed for this field. |
sn |
System Defined |
User ID |
Enter the LDAP attribute for the user object identifier that serves as unique key for the record. Default handling is always "System Defined." If this field is blank, the system will cause the update to fail and add a message to the error log. NOTES
|
ObjectGUID |
System Defined |
Login ID |
The Login ID attribute provides compatibility with applications, including MiCollab and MiVoice Business, that rely on the availability of Login ID data. It is not required by MiVoice Business for phone service. If the Login ID data is given, a default password must be set via a User and Service Template. Default handling is always "None." |
