Community Server LDAP Discovery

noteNote

LDAP discovery works only when you are using a Community Server, and its release is less than 8.5.1. This option does not work with the Media Manager or any 8.5.x Sametime server.

When the Conference and Presence Services are installed on a Community Server, there is an option to automatically detect some LDAP configurations from the SametimeCommunity2.xml file located in the Domino directory. This option will only be used if the value of avaya.aes.sametime.community2_xml_enabled is set to true by the configurator.

The SametimeCommunity2.xml file is configured on the IBM Sametime Community server and can be accessed various ways. One way to access this file is via the stcenter.nsf web interface Administer this server > LDAP Directory. The SametimeCommunity2.xml configurations will take precedence over what has been configured in the avaya-aes-sametime.properties file if the Conference andPresence Services are able to detect any enabled LDAP servers in the SametimeCommunity2.xml file.

The following properties are ignored when the SametimeCommunity2.xml file is present and avaya.aes.sametime.community2_xml_enabled=true:

This does not apply to the LDAPS truststore location and password or any of the following properties which are always retrieved from the avaya-aes-sametime.properties file by the Conference and Presence Services:
