Hello,

I’ve just started to look at LDAP in IP telephony.

1. I’ve read parts of RFC2798 which defines inetOrgPerson class. I could find homePhone or telephoneNumber (multi-valued) attributes but nothing like phoneExtension. Did I miss something ?
I not, what would you advise to store private extensions in LDAP db ?

2. Several SIP phones can query LDAP databases. Have you met any success with such SIP phones and LDAP entries with two values for telephoneNumber ?
In other words, is it required by SIP phone to only have one telephoneNumber or mobile attribute value per entry ?

Regards

    it is some time ago that have looked at this kind of stuff… AFAIK most phones have the possibility to define some sort of filters to select the attribute(s). If I remember correctly the phones from Snom, Gigaset, Tiptel and Yealink have a parameter to select attributes for name and number.

    HTH,
