Avaya Directory Enabled
Management
Avaya Directory Enabled Management (DEM) is part of the Avaya VisAbility
management suite, and provides real-time, integrated, directory-based read/write
access to Avaya media servers and INTUITY AUDIX messaging servers. It
streamlines workflow and information management in an electronic environment
using converged networks.
DEM creates a meta-directory for converged voice and data networks. It
synchronizes directory information with data from Communication Manager and
INTUITY devices, and stores the information in an LDAP-compliant directory
service (for example, Novell’s eDirectory or Microsoft’s active directory).
Directory-enabled applications can then use the DEM to implement workflow
processes that automate various system management functions and speed business
operations.
Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP)
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol version 3 (LDAPv3) is an industry
compliant protocol for accessing online directory services. A directory is like a
database, but tends to contain more description information. Communication
Manager integrates with LDAP datastores through the use of the administration
change notification feature and Avaya directory enabled management client
application to provide real-time, integrated, directory-based read/write access to
Communication Manager and INTUITY AUDIX messaging servers.
