The Enterprise Directory Gateway (EDG) application is software that provides a platform for simplifying information management. It uses the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) standard to enable messaging system data, providing real-time, integrated, directory-based read/write access to messaging data and other data derived from enterprise resources, such as corporate databases.
The EDG application interfaces with messaging and a customer-provided LDAP server through a TCP/IP connection.
The Directory Notification Feature, required for messaging systems, is software that allows the EDG application to be informed when an administrator adds, deletes, or changes attributes of one or more subscribers. See the Directory Gateway Notification feature for more information about this feature.
For additional information about EDG, see the documentation that accompanies the EDG application.
