[cisco-voip] jabber directory lookup attributes (UDS)

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

Thanks Justin, 

I'm gathering options, so that might definitely be a possibility. Not sure how I would handle that though, basically, having to create a new LDAP sync without deleting the existing users. 

I'm also trying to resolve how Jabber does a search on the UDS contacts with an inbound caller ID (extension). Apparently, that's the only time the directory lookup rules are used? 

ugh. this was supposed to be easy. :)

someone correct my if I'm wrong, but I don't think Jabber will search any of the custom LDAP attributes as part of cucm dirsync. I would recommend configuring your directory numbers in AD in the ipPhone field in the format YYYYY. then change your cucm dirsync so that cucm imports the ipPhone field into CUCM as the CUCM telephone number. that why you won't need any dial rules or lookup rules for this setup.

Trying to find a way around the way telephone numbers are stored in our Active Directory so Jabber users can search by DN. 

Right now, we're using UDS so that way the experience is the same on premise and off-premise. CUCM is LDAP integrated with Active Directory. 

Unfortunately, our telephone numbers are stored as follows: "+1-NPA-NXX-XXXX xYYYYY". (small x is a literal x, big X and Y are 0-9) 

The dashes and blank are ignored, but the little x is interpreted as a 9, so in Jabber, a directory search using the user name shows " +1NPANXXXXXX9YYYYY" 

For the most part, I can build dial rules to work around this, dropping a whole bunch of digits before dialing so that way only the extension is dialed. 

But searching for extensions is gonna be almost impossible since I can't write a directory lookup rule to include the spaces, etc. 

I'd like to be able to use the other attributes mentioned here:

I'm just wondering if I simply use "otherTelephone" and "otherTelephone" in the custom LDAP synchronization fields. Will it only take the first one? 

Anyone else play with this?
