IC Data Source Name

Type the name of an IC data source that generally describes the kind of data another part of CIC might need to access. CIC data sources generically define a gateway to a particular kind of data repository, including:

• An ODBC database

• A JDBC interface to an ODBC database

• The old JDBC-ODBC database interface

• Lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP)

• White Pages directory data

CIC data source names appear in the Type field in the Contact List Sources Configuration page. The Contact List Sources actually define the directory pages that can appear as a directory view in the CIC clients (such as Company Directory).
