Description Suggested use
LDAP/EWS
No Requires Exchange Server
2007 with Service Pack 1 or
later.
EWS along with LDAP is recommended
when your company employs a number of
people, uses multiple Exchange servers,
and you want to take advantage of the
service URL autodiscover feature
(administrator do not need to reconfigure
ShareScan when the Exchange
infrastructure is changed).
You can restrict LDAP queries with profile
settings for the organizational unit which
uses a particular scanning device; queries
are executed faster, and result lists are
considerably shorter. Our LDAP protocol
implementation autodetects the Global
Catalog server, and supports SSL
communication as well. EWS also
supports cross domain setups, so can be
used when ShareScan and the target
Exchange server exist within separate
domains.
EWS/EWS
No Requires Exchange Server
2007 with Service Pack 1 or
later.
Recommended when the ShareScan
Manager works outside of Active Directory
domains (can be used within the domain as
well), and simple firewall setup is a
requirement. Also the best choice when
your Exchange server is hosted in a
Datacenter, and you want to access that
via HTTPS.
EWS (Exchange Web Services) is based
on SOAP/HTTPS, which transfers request
and responses via TCP 443 port. EWS
supports service URL autodiscovery,
making it advantageous in environments
where service endpoints change
frequently.
Limitations: supported versions are
Exchange 2007 SP1 and above; Search
while typing during login has limited
functionality.
Extras: Users can save new contacts into
their Personal Contacts folder.
