Creating 2 corporate directories in CUCM 8 for 2 sites

[h_ramdolin]

Dear All,

In a multisite environment with a centralised CUCM, I need to create 2 corporate directories on CUCM, one for users on Site A and one for users on Site B.

When users browse their phones they should see 2 directories listed and be able to browse each one of them.

Can you please help in doing the above configuration?

Thanks

Hemant,

You won't be able to do this with the native corporate directory application. You would need to run a custom corp directory application. There may be 3rd party apps out there or you can use the SDK and build on the examples provided. Though, the example corp directory is a bit dated and is focused on pulling entries from multiple LDAPs. You can tweak it to actually pull entries from CUCM via AXL/SOAP.

So, there is an answer but it isn't very straight forward. If you are comfortable with XML and ASP scripting then it is something you can do easily. 

You can find the SDK on http://developer.cisco.com/

HTH.

Regards,

Bill

PS: I love this line;

"So, there is an answer but it isn't very straight forward."

Doesn't that describe all this stuff
