You can locate this very useful tool at and you can download a free versions. We were able to locate a tool from Softerra that can be of great help in searching your AD for user information. You will also need to have the LDAP directory URL for your domain.ДЇor those of us that are not Microsoft wizards, you might need some help locating the LDAP directory URL. It is important that you first create a user in ShoreTel that has both ShoreTel administrationВ privilegesВ and an AD user account in your domain. The Version 11 web based Call Manager, for example, provides two links: one for the ShoreTel authentication and one for AD authentication. Once implemented, ShoreTel system administrators have the opportunity to determine which users will require AD authentication as it is possible, using this integration that they can remain authenticated by the ShoreTel directory system. ShoreTel Active Directory integration isВ relatively straight forward, stress-free integration. For example, now that ShoreTel has a complete Call Manager application running within your favorite internet browser, users will become aware that they are logging in as they will need to provide credentials each time they access the web application (see previous video this subject).

With ShoreTel 11 Active Directory integration has matured and the reasons for implementing active directory user authentication are increasingly more obvious.

Active Directory administrators however, most certainly know that a login has occurred. Most users do not even know that they are in fact logging into ShoreTel. Most implementations have the ShoreTel desktop application launched automatically when the user starts up their desktop computers. Generally, ShoreTel users do not actually log in and log out of their Call Managers, or their Communicators as ShoreTel has renamed them in Version 11. The end result is a down ShoreTel server and a call to TAC support! I still feel strongly about this, but you can still integrate Active Directory authentication for your ShoreTel users. To many times, an Active Directory administrator will create a new Group Policy and forget about the ShoreTel user account. Historically I have recommended that the ShoreTel server not be a computer in your domain.
