Configuring the Directory Application Search Administration Screen

The Search screen’s administration requires that you provide labels for the LDAP attributes that appear on the user interface Search screen. These attributes are the labeled search fields the end user sees when the Search screen displays.

Any Customer-Defined Label you create populates the Label value of the Enter Label Here text entry box on the Search Administration screen. This label also displays as the text entry prompt on the user interface Search screen. See Figure 28:  Sample Search Screen on page 136 for an illustration of the user interface Search screen

1. From the Welcome screen, select the Search Administration screen link. Alternately, select the Right Arrow icon at the bottom of the General Administration screen.

2. Enter the search fields, corresponding LDAP attribute names, and associated labels by which your end users can search your corporate Directory. The Search Administration screen contains the fields shown in Table 14.

Example: Line 3 above shows a search field “E-mail” with the LDAP attribute “mail.” If you enter the Associated Label in column 4 as “E-mail Address” the end users’ Search screen third line prompts: “Enter E-mail Address Here.”

You can populate fields with well-known LDAP attributes from an Avaya-provided drop-down list. Table 15:  List of Drop-Down Attributes available for Search, Query and Details Administration Screens on page 151 provides a list of allowable attributes you can use to label such fields.
