LDAP directory replication
An address book is available on the digital sender to speed up the process of selecting
e-mail and fax destinations from the control panel. The e-mail addresses and fax numbers in
the address book come from several sources:
The LDAP server on the network
Destinations previously specified by users at the control panel
E-mail and fax address books created with the HP Address Book Manager
You can use one of two methods to synchronize the digital-sender address books with the
LDAP server.
Method
Description
Effect at the control panel
Using a replicated LDAP
address book
HP DSS takes a snapshot of
the LDAP server’s database
and populates the digital
sender's address book with the
addresses that it finds. The HP
MFP DSS Configuration Utility
can be used to either manually
initiate the task or schedule it to
run automatically at a certain
time.
As you type the initial
characters in a name, the
digital sender attempts to
complete the name from the
names in the address book.
You type more characters until
a match is found. When you
select a name, the associated
e-mail address is automatically
selected.
Using an LDAP address book
directly
Firmware in the digital sender
initiates and resolves name
queries directly with the LDAP
server. You do not have to
synchronize the address book
with the LDAP server, either
manually or according to a
schedule.
You type a partial name. The
digital sender displays the list
of resulting names from the
LDAP server. When you select
a name, the associated e-mail
address is automatically
selected.
NOTE
If the digital sender is configured to use an LDAP address book directly, it cannot access the
replicated address book.
If replication is enabled, only the display names and e-mail addresses are replicated.
