Contacts
Corporate Directory
You can look up a coworker's number from your phone, which makes it easier to give them a call. Your
administrator sets up and maintains the directory.
Your phone supports three types of corporate directories—Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)
Directory, Broadsoft Directory, and a Cisco XML Directory.
Broadsoft Directory
You can search and view your personal, group, and enterprise contacts in your Broadsoft Directory, which
makes it easier to give them a call. Your administrator configures the Broadsoft Directory in your phone. This
application feature uses BroadSoft's Extended Services Interface (XSI).
Search for a Contact in Your BroadSoft Directory
Before you begin
• Your administrator enables the BroadSoft XSI services.
• Your administrator enables the BroadSoft directories and sets up the directories properly.
• Your administrator enables the Browse Mode for the directories.
Procedure
Step 1
Press Contacts.
Step 2
Press Category, if it displays on the phone. Otherwise, skip the step.
Step 3
Select a BroadSoft directory. The default names are:
• Enterprise
• Group
• Personal
• Enterprise Common
• Group Common
Note
After you enter the directory, wait until the preload operation is complete. You can press Cancel to stop the
preload operation.
Search Your Mobile Contacts on Your Desk Phone
When this mode is enabled, a preload operation will start automatically to retrieve all the contacts from
the directory.
When your administrator disables the directory individual mode, the phone only displays BroadSoft
directory.
