Configuring Corporate and Personal Directories Chapter 7 Configuring Features, Templates, Services, and Users Configuring Corporate and Personal Directories The Directory menu on the Cisco Wireless IP Phone 7920 gives users access to two directories. These directories can include: • Corporate Directory-Allows a user to look up phone numbers for co-workers. To support this feature, you must configure corporate directories. See the "Configuring Corporate Directories" section on page 7-12 for more information. • Phone Book-Allows a user to store a set of personal numbers on their phone. For information about setting up the Phone Book, refer to the Cisco Wireless IP Phone Guide. Note Through IP Phone services, users can also have access to a Personal Address Book (PAB). To support this feature, you must provide the user with software to configure the personal directory. See the "Configuring Personal Directory" section on page 7-13 for more information. Configuring Corporate Directories Cisco CallManager uses a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory to store authentication and authorization information about users of Cisco CallManager applications that interface with Cisco CallManager. Authentication establishes the users' rights to access the system. Authorization identifies the telephony resources that a user is permitted to use, such as a specific telephone extension. To install and set up these features, refer to Installing and Configuring the Cisco Customer Directory Configuration Plugin. That manual guides you through the configuration process for integrating Cisco CallManager with Microsoft Active Directory and Netscape Directory Server. After the LDAP directory configuration completes, users can use the Corporate Directory service on your Cisco Wireless IP Phone 7920 to look up users in the corporate directory. 7-12 Cisco Wireless IP Phone 7920 Administration Guide for Cisco CallManager Release 4.0 and 4.1 OL-7104-01
