Adding a User to Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Adding a User to Cisco Unified Communications Manager
This section describes steps for adding a user to Cisco Unified Communications Manager. Follow one
of the procedures in this section, depending on your operating system and the manner in which you are
adding the user:
• Adding a User From an External LDAP Directory, page E-2
• Adding a User Directly to Cisco Unified Communications Manager, page E-3
Adding a User From an External LDAP Directory
If you added a user to an LDAP Directory (a non-Cisco Unified Communications Server directory), you
can immediately synchronize that directory to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager on which
you are adding this same user and the user’s phone by following these steps:
Note Before you perform the following procedure, you must check the Enable Synchronizing from LDAP
Server check box in the LDAP System Configuration window of Cisco Unified Communications
Manager Administration (System > LDAP > LDAP System).
Procedure
Step 1 Log onto Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration.
Step 2 Choose System > LDAP > LDAP Directory.
Step 3 Use the Find button to locate your LDAP directory.
Step 4 Click on the LDAP directory name.
Step 5 Click Perform Full Sync Now.
Note If you do not need to immediately synchronize the LDAP Directory to the Cisco Unified
Communications Manager, the LDAP Directory Synchronization Schedule on the LDAP
Directory window determines when the next auto-synchronization is scheduled. However, the
synchronization must occur before you can associate a new user to a device.
Step 6 Proceed to Configuring the Phone, page E-3.

Manager Administration Guide, LDAP System Configuration, LDAP Directory Configuration, and
