  2. LDAP: Lightweight Directory Access Protocol • LDAP serves as a flexible, scalable user- and security-management infrastructure to store and manage user profiles and to serve as the basis for site-wide user authentication and security • Allows for one central database to be updated for authentication via multiple ECSs on the network • LDAP is an IETF standard defined by the Accessing and Indexing Directories (ASID) working group.

  3. LDAP – Main Features today • Authentication • When an endpoint registers to the ECS, it is authenticated according to its alias/es and or IP address. • Location of Endpoint (using static/online info) • If ECS cannot find the destination in its zone, it searches the static info or the online info directory • Update • The ECS updates the LDAP server with information about online endpoints, such as aliases, call signaling address and RAS address. • Retrieve neighbor GK list • The ECS reads the neighbor list from the LDAP server every fixed time

  4. LDAP – Tree Structure

  5. New LDAP Schema Based on Draft H.350.x recommendations (February 2003) • Authentication • At registration to the ECS, the endpoint will be authenticated according to its H.235 sender Id and password • Fixed aliases from LDAP • Successful registration will utilize aliases as defined in LDAP and NOT in the endpoint • Authorization • Different service level groups will be utilized for authorization of the call by the ECS at the ARQ stage
