[cisco-voip] LDAP Search Refinement

[Matthew J. Hughes]

We are implementing CCM6 on campus and now using our Active Directory for
logins for CCMusers, and for the directory.   The AD was not designed to be
CCM friendly so it has OUs that are not wanted, and users in the groups that
don't have a phone associated with them.  It is possible I suppose to mess
with the AD structure and move unwanted users to alternate OUs, but this
shouldn't be necessary.    You can define a "LDAP User Search Base" but my
understanding is you can not put refined search criteria in this field. I
want to only get the AD users that have a 4 digit extension listed in the
IPPHONE field of LDAP.   I don't see a way to do this in CCM Admin.   Are
any of you familiar with LDAP enough to give guidance?  All I could think to
do is have a intermediary LDAP "Gateway"  the gateway(OPEN LDAP, etc..) will
sync with AD getting only the users I want, CCM6 would then sync with the
Gateway.  Downside is we have to maintain a different LDAP server just for
this purpose.   Any Ideas?
