[FAQ] Can I use a central Phone book or is LDAP / Corporate Directory supported?

Poly Phones can support a corporate Directory.

 

Depending on the Software Release the Phones are running a Productivity Suite License is needed. 

 

  • A Free Site License (excluding VQMon) can be found => here <=

Using UC Software 4.0.0 or later does no longer require a License!

 

The following phones support the LDAP / Corporate Directory:

 

NOTE: Please check the Admin Guide matching your Software Release (SIP / UCS) for further details / limitations!

 

The following LDAP Servers have been tested with Poly Corporate Directory feature:


• Microsoft Active Directory 2003 or 2008
• SUN ONE Directory Server 5.2 p6
• OPEN LDAP 2.4.12
• Microsoft ADAM (Active Directory Application Mode) 1.0 SP1

 

Details regarding the setup or troubleshooting can be found in this Technical Bulletin => here <=

 

Information on how to use a Local Directory File without having to use a Corporate Directory can be found => here <=

 

An example that has been verified and tested on UCS 3.3.2 and UCS 4.0.1:
