Site Configuration
LDAP Server Configuration
LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) is an optional configuration setting that is only applicable to 
the SMARTsend integrated address book lookup feature. When this feature is configured, SMARTsend uses 
LDAP to obtain and confirm e-mail address information when a user enters part of a name in the 
SMARTsend fields that specify e-mail addresses as scanning destinations.
To configure SMARTsend to use LDAP for e-mail address lookups, you need to enter the fully qualified 
DNS name or IP address of the LDAP server. To specify the use of SSL encryption when connecting to an 
LDAP server for address book lookup, select the SSL checkbox in the LDAP Server Configuration section 
of the page.
When the SSL checkbox is checked and a user name and password has been entered for the LDAP server, 
SMARTsend will use SSL encryption when connecting to the LDAP server.
LDAP Authentication
If the LDAP server requires authentication (when it does not support anonymous directory access), then you 
will also need to enter credentials for the LDAP server. The credentials are the account Name and Password 
that the LDAP server requires for authentication.
After entering the LDAP server configuration information, click Test to verify the configuration. If 
SMARTsend can communicate with the LDAP server, a status of Succeeded appears. If the test fails, you 
should confirm that the LDAP server name and credentials you entered in SMARTsend match the actual 
server name and credentials that are configured on the LDAP server, then test the configuration again. If the 
test still fails, you should check your LDAP server to confirm that it is configured properly and is 
functioning with other applications that use LDAP. 
LDAP Property Mappings
SMARTsend provides the default LDAP Property Mapping for the E-mail Address (mail), Name (cn), and 
City (l) attributes. These default settings should match the defaults for most LDAP servers. If your LDAP 
server uses different mappings, you will need to change these SMARTsend mappings to match the mappings 
that are defined on your LDAP server. For further assistance, contact your LDAP server administrator.
