When the Last Name or First Name is modified in the MS Active Directory interface, those attributes are automatically synchronized first into the Alcatel OmniVista 4760 company directory and then into the Alcatel OmniPCX Enterprise. The unique key used to differentiate users is called the Unique ID, which can be an employee ID, a phone set ID, or a combination, etc. The company directory of the Alcatel OmniVista 4760 contains the necessary phone information, and the Unique ID field must be enabled. Every action carried out by the adapter will be logged in a text file to allow the tracking of changes made and to aid in problem resolution. Telephony Management: The Telephony Management integration provides a Webbased application that allows the MS Active Directory administrator to create users based on predefined profiles (access category, voice mail and keys) within the Alcatel OmniPCX Enterprise. This application adds a new tab in the Microsoft Active Directory Management tool and allows to request the Web browser to launch Alcatel Telephony management interface.
