[cisco-voip] LDAP UC vs CM

[stephen.welsh at unifiedfx.com]

CUCiMOC does not get involved with OCS Normalisation, as you are not using OCS for voice.

You normally use Application Dial-rules for converting E.164 to 4 digits (or other internal extension formats)

Also, if I remember correctly, Directory Dial-Rules are used by Attendant Console for just the problem you describe, converting users extension numbers to their real 4 digit DN etc. for BLF etc.
