CallManager 8.0 and MS Active Directory

[Vitaliy Tsoy]

Hello,

I have a question regarding when CM make a request to Active Directory and use by default the account's fields: 'Name', 'TelephoneNumber'. Can I change that CM will be able to use the another account's fields in the AD?         

Thanks!

Hi

For Telephone Number, you can use telephoneNumber or ipPhone.

'Name' isn't a field - you have sn, givenname (i.e. last name and firstname in CUCM) and these aren't negotiable.

If you are talking about userid, that's changeable but there are a lot of caveats with doing that.

You should read this and then come back with any questions: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/srnd/8x/directry.html

Hi,

Have a read at this link

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/admin/8_0_1/ccmcfg/b02ldsys.html#wpxref72074

There are many attributes that you can use

LDAP Attribute for User ID

If synchronization with the LDAP server is enabled, you can choose an LDAP attribute value for the user ID. Choose one of the following values from the drop-down list box: •For Microsoft Active Directory –sAMAccountName –mail –employeeNumber –telephoneNumber –userPrincipalName •Microsoft Active Directory Application Mode –uid –mail –employeeNumber –telephoneNumber –userPrincipalName •For Sun ONE LDAP Server, iPlanet, and OpenLDAP –uid –mail –employeeNumber –telephoneNumber

Alex.
