In addition to
configuring intradomain federation on the presence server, you might need to
specify some configuration settings in the Cisco Jabber configuration files.
To resolve
contacts during contact search or retrieve contact information from your
directory, Cisco Jabber requires the contact ID for each user. Cisco Unified
Communications Manager IM & Presence server uses a specific format for
resolving contact information that does not always match the format on other
presence servers such as Microsoft Office Communications Server or Microsoft
Live Communications Server.
The parameters
that you use to configure intradomain federation depend on whether you use
Enhanced
Directory Integration (EDI) or
Basic
Directory Integration (BDI). EDI uses native Microsoft Windows APIs to
retrieve contact data from the directory service and is only used by Cisco
Jabber for Windows. For BDI, the client retrieves contact data from the
directory service and is used by Cisco Jabber for Mac, Cisco Jabber for
Android, and Cisco Jabber for iPhone and iPad.
