Summary

This Recommendation describes an LDAP schema to represent non-standard multimedia communications endpoints, and is meant to provide a very basic framework for representing these elements in a directory. It is an auxiliary class related to ITU-T Rec. H.350 and derives much of its functionality from that architecture. Implementors should review ITU-T Rec. H.350 in detail before proceeding with this Recommendation.

The scope of this Recommendation does not include normative methods for the use of the LDAP directory itself or the data it contains. The purpose of the schema is not to represent all possible data elements in the H.323 protocol, but rather to represent the minimal set required to accomplish the design goals enumerated in ITU-T Rec. H.350.
