overview

TIM Enterprise was is designed upon an object-based methodology directory that places no no limits on its hierarchical width or depth limits, which allows an unlimited number of objects to be added to the system, enabling . This approach permits the integration of multiple sites within one centralised system, where every user can be grouped into folders, sites, cost centres and divisions, allowing you to create an exact replica of your company's internal structure. This permits the integration of multiple sites, and by defining relationships between the directory objects, the system becomes intelligent and can perform certain task automatically, such as inter-site trunk routing.

Accessing the Directory

Every system object of the Directory has an explicit, defined relationship with its peers and an entire tree of related objects can be defined, with no width or depth limits of the branches.

To facilitate the configuration and management of large systems, TIM Enterprise supports directory synchronisation with third-party applications such as Active Directory and Cisco AXL.

The Directory in TIM Enterprise contains a number of organisational units and other objects. You can recreate your own organisational structure by selecting the organisation units that match your own and place them in the Directory where appropriate. You can enhance this further by placing other objects anywhere in the same Directory. e.g. If you have one company with five sites, you could choose Group as the first Directory object and within that you could add five individual sites. You can then go into each site and configure as appropriate.

The Directory is constructed by two types of objects: Organisational units and Other objects.
