Use same VTX LDAP Server on different vPBX services[edit | edit source]

You wish to have same LDAP informations on different vPBX within VTX.

  • Activate VTX LDAP on one of the vPBX Services
  • Get the credentials of the VTX LDAP activated on this Service
  • Connect to the Kiosk of the other vPBX Services
  • Activate External LDAP on all other vPBX Services and enter the credentials of first VTX LDAP (example below)

LDAP VTX (from main vPBX Service)
Password LDAP: ********************
Server: ldaps://ldap.ipvoip.ch:636
LDAP Root: o=7992737673434069316,dc=c5-pb
User name: cn=7992737673434069316,ou=DefLoc,o=7992737673434069316,dc=c5-pb

External LDAP (credentials above and how to insert for all other vPBX Services)
Protocol: LDAPS (Secure)
Server: ldap.ipvoip.ch
Port: 636
LDAP Root: o=5033022378546444361,dc=c5-pb
User name: cn=5033022378546444361,ou=DefLoc

My "External LDAP" setting is not working[edit | edit source]

  • Problem: You have setup a Kiosk LDAP External setup and it is not working
  • Problematic: You need to identify where the problem comes from ( credentials, network, firewall, LDAP Tree, ...)
  • Information: When "External LDAP" get setup in Kiosk, the only thing that VTX are doing is to push these parameters in the Yealink + Snom + Gigaset phones
  • Clue: Most of the problems comes from: the LDAP suffix get added to the username, problem will be visible in Phone Web Interface LDAP setup
  • Solution: Here is how to debug the problem
  1. Phone : Connect to a phone (Yealink or Snom or Gigaset) and do a LDAP config screenshot to see how it is setup
  2. In Kiosk : Set back LDAP setting to "LDAP Neutral" to allow you to perform LDAP setup modification on the phone (For Snom, you need to factory reset the phone)
  3. Phone : Now setup your LDAP settings manually on the phone and have it working, debug the problem on the Phone and on the server
    1. Network : Your phone need to be able to reach the LDAP server
    2. Credentials : You need to enter the correct credentials on the phone to have it working
  4. Phone : Once you have a working LDAP setup on the phone, compare it to the one that was pushed by the Kiosk and update the Kiosk setup to have it working
