The internationalization parameters specify how a user’s given name and surname are stored in Microsoft Active Directory (AD), and which language is used to store these names. Optionally, for non-Latin script languages, two of the parameters also specify how the ASCII transliteration of these names is stored.
The following procedure describes configuring the LDAP internationalization parameters when AD is used.
  1. On the Avaya Aura® Device Services web administration portal, navigate to Server ConnectionsLDAP ConfigurationEnterprise Directory.
    STEP RESULT:
    Avaya Aura® Device Services displays the Enterprise LDAP Server Configuration page.
  2. Configure the language setting:
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

    Description
    Default value
    Language used in Directory
    The language code of one of the languages supported by Avaya Aura® Device Services.
  3. Click Save.
  4. Click Modify Attribute Mappings.
  5. Configure the following settings:
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    Parameter
    Description
    Default value
    NativeFirstName
    The attribute that stores the given name of the user in the language of the LDAP server.
    NativeSurName
    The attribute that stores the surname of the user in the language of the LDAP server.
    GivenName
    This is only applicable if the language in AD is one of the non-Latin script based ones.
    SurName
    This is only applicable if the language in AD is one of the non-Latin script based ones.
    The NativeFirstName and NativeSurName parameters allow the user to identify the LDAP attributes used to store the user's native language given name and surname. These are mandatory parameters with defaults of
  6. .
The GivenName and SurName parameters allows the user to identify the LDAP attributes used to store the ASCII transliteration of the user's given name and surname, respectively. These are optional parameters and only used only if the Language used in Directory parameter is set to one of the non-Latin script languages.
The internationalization of the names must be done using the language tags specified in RFC 3866.
To configure internationalization for Microsoft Active Directory, you must configure custom attributes for the native and the ASCII transliterations of the names, if both types of names are needed.
