The International Telecommunications Union Standardization Sector (ITU-T)
has created the H.350 series of Recommendations that specify directory
services architectures in support of multimedia conferencing protocols. The
goal of the architecture is to 'directory enable' multimedia conferencing
so that these services can leverage existing identity management and
enterprise directories. A particular goal is to enable an enterprise or
service provider to maintain a canonical source of users and their
multimedia conferencing systems, so that multiple call servers from
multiple vendors, supporting multiple protocols, can all access the same
data store. Because SIP is an IETF standard, the contents of H.350 and
H.350.4 are made available via this document to the IETF community. This
document contains the entire normative text of ITU-T Recommendations H.350
and H.350.4 in sections 4 and 5, respectively. The remaining sections are
included only in this document, not in the ITU-T version. Specific
differences between this text and the original include: 1. This text
contains a Security Considerations section (section 9) not found in the
original. 2. This text includes an additional reference to RFC 2798 which
defines inetOrgPerson and userSMIMECertificate. 3. This text does not
contain the non-normative appendices found in the original. These
appendices include implementation considerations and graphics for system
implementers.
