[cisco-voip] Expressway 8.5 is out

[Jason Aarons (AM)]

UDS is only a subset of data in AD.  CallManager/UDS wasn’t made to be a PIM product.  LDAP is more feature rich.

For example if you want to lookup a user’s fax number you have to Alt Tab out of Jabber if using UDS and flip over to Outlook.  However if using LDAP with Jabber you get some pretty good info.

End users want Jabber to mirror Outlook/Lync when migrating off Lync.

I'm trying to understand what you're pointing out. Expressway is an HTTPS proxy so there wouldn't be any LDAP sent over the Internet. So UDS serves that purpose so that off premise clients can search the directory.

From what I'm reading this is more of your security setup and nothing wrong particularly with UDS. Are you saying your directory on CUCM is invalid?

Direct Access isn't supported and I wouldn't recommend it. There are more clients to consider than endpoints that run Windows.

I notice contact search is limited to UDS still. I was hoping LDAP would have been enabled.

We have scenarios where people don't want their extensions known, so through LDAP we publish public extensions for those people.

With UDS, it looks like it reveals this information, especially if you dial via URI.

It also seems there are are few limitations when using the expressway solution vs direct access.

In all honest, I was hoping to deploy expressway as an on-campus solution as well.

We don't have a split view DNS set up, which I'm gathering is what is necessary to deploy Expressway for MRA only for off campus.

I'm just starting to read up on this stuff, so I might be off my rocker in some areas.  :)
