Configuring Contact Method Attribute Maps

You can map the LDAP attribute you have defined for contact methods to the Liberty attribute Contact Method (MsgContact).

  1. Click Devices > Identity Servers > Edit > Liberty > LDAP Attribute Mapping > New > Contact Method.

  2. Specify the following details:

    Name: The name you want to give the map.

    Description: A description of the map.

    Access Rights: If you set this to Read/Write, you can specify rights for individual data items.

    For user provisioning to succeed, you must select Read/Write for any maps that use an attribute during user provisioning.

    User Stores: The user store that a map applies to. If a user logs into a user store that is not in the map’s user store list, that map is not used to read or write attributes for that user.

  3. Under Contact Method to LDAP Attributes, specify the following details to map to the Liberty Contact Method attribute:

    Provider LDAP Attribute: Maps to the Liberty attribute MsgProvider, which is the service provider or domain that provides the messaging service.

    Account LDAP Attribute: Maps to the Liberty attribute MsgAccount, which is the account or address information within the messaging provider.

    SubAccount LDAP Attribute: Maps to the Liberty MsgSubaccount, which is the subaccount within a messaging account, such as the voice mail box associated with a phone number.

  4. Under Contact Method Template Data, specify the following details:

    Nickname: Maps to the Liberty attribute Nick, which is an informal name for the contact.

    Type: Maps to the Liberty attribute MsgType (such as Mobile, Personal, or Work).

    Method: Maps to the Liberty MsgMethod (such as Voice, Fax, or E-mail).

    Technology: Maps to the Liberty attribute MsgTechnology (such as Pager, VOIP, and so on).

  5. Click Finish > OK.
