[cisco-voip] Filtering out specific number from Jabber

Mon Jan 11 07:57:47 EST 2016

Hi Ryan,

Thanks for getting back to me.

It's the visibly that the issue. The users add their personal mobile numbers in for emergency contact for HR  purposes. Everything was working fine on EDI but now they want to go to collab edge they will start seeing the numbers, Looks like we are going to have to use one of the "other" telephone fields to store these numbers. We will just have to change all the scripts that populate it and update the HR system to look at the other field.

I have also put in a request via the PDI helpdesk, If anything comes of that I'll share their findings but their initial response wasn't hopeful.

Does anyone know if you can block specific fields being imported from LDAP to stop them hitting the CUCM database in the first place?

Regards

Matthew Collins

Hello Matthew,

I apologize, this got away from me too, for the same reasons.

As I said, this is not an elegant solution and a bit clunky however, what you could do is write application dial rules in UCM that match the mobile numbers and then add or subtract digits that, in effect, make the call un-routeable (or route to a null location).

The most significant drawback is that it isn't masking or hiding the mobile number from the Jabber client, which is what you're really after I gather; this is just preventing the Jabber client from being able to natively dial it. Apart from that, if these numbers aren't in a range and are all over the place, you could end up with several application dial rules (and possibly conflicts/overlaps).

Depending on the other applications that need these mobile numbers, you might be able to adjust the other applications to look at different fields for the mobile number and then move the mobile numbers to different fields; thereby and ultimately, not making it available to the Jabber client.

Thanks,

Hi Ryan,

Sorry to dig up an old thread, Everything got put on hold over Christmas and the new year,  but can I ask what your less elegant solution was?

Regards

Thanks Ryan,

Only using UDS so end users get the same experience on premise or working Via MRA. UDS is the only supported directory lookup via MRA Unless something has changed that I missed.

So I'm working remotely signing in Via MRA, Running Jabber for windows 11.2.

I added the following

<Directory>

   <MobilePhone>telephoneNumber</MobilePhone>

   <BDIMobilePhone>telephoneNumber</BDIMobilePhone>

</Directory>

into my local jabber-config-user.xml that I use for testing xml settings that's stored in .....\AppData\Roaming\Cisco\Unified Communications\Jabber\CSF\Config

This should of changed all mobile numbers to the users work numbers.

I reset Jabber and searched for a user that's not a stored user either in my address book or a jabber contact but the mobile numbers are still being pulled through.

When using UDS, Jabber doesn't query LDAP. It uses an API on CUCM and is limited to data held in the End Use Table of CUCM's database. You should still be able to use the config file to redirect field mapping within the Jabber client. I seem to recall making this work before.

Let me know your results, if it still doesn't work and you are still married to UDS. I do have another, much less elegant solution -but it works. Or, consider EDI.

Thanks,

Ryan

Hi Ryan,

I was under the impression that you could only manipulate feild mappings when using BDI or EDI, I didn't think that you could with UDS.

I'll give it a test.

Hey Matthew,

You cannot remove the presence of the field from the Jabber client (i.e hide), but you can control the value of the field via jabber-config.xml. So while "home phone" displays in the client, you could map it to another (blank) field.

Check out the Jabber xml generator if you have not already,

Hi All,

Is there a way to filter out specify AD fields that the CUCM imports from AD, For Example AD contains Home telephone and we want to keep that in there as other applications need it but we don't want it to appear in the CUCM end users contact from either the phone or Jabber.

I know for Jabber we could use EDS/BDS and map the fields to null but we want to stick with UDS for Jabber so the users have the same experience internally and via edge.

Thanks in advance Matt
