Appendix D: Administering the
4610SW and 4620 Thin Client
Directories
Introduction 5
If you have a corporate database that supports the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP),
Avaya’s Thin Client Directory application can communicate with that database. Your 4610SW and
4620 IP Telephone users can then use their phones to search for names, telephone numbers, or
other information, and use the results of their searches to call a person directly, store a number on
a Speed Dial button, and/or view more details about the person.
This appendix provides the information needed to install and administer Avaya’s Thin Client
Directory. It has four primary sections:
Application Platform Requirements - Describes the operating environment for the Thin Client
Directory application.
Installing the Thin Client Directory on the Server - Lists the Avaya-provided download files
needed for installation, pre-installation requirements, and step-by-step installation instructions.
Web Application User Interface - Describes and illustrates the Directory application screens
with which 4610SW and 4620 IP Telephone users perform Directory searches and review
search results.
Directory Database Administration Interface - Describes and illustrates the administration
screens with which you define LDAP attributes and configure the user interface screens.
Figure D-1
on page D-2 provides a high-level overview of the Thin Client architecture.
All subsequent references to the 4620 IP Telephone apply equally to the 4610SW and
4620SW IP Telephones.
