Explanation
LDAP Directory synchronization is a mandatory prerequisite for enabling SAML SSO in Cisco UCM. SAML SSO authenticates users via an external Identity Provider (IdP), but UCM must still have the corresponding user accounts locally provisioned to authorize access and apply service profiles. LDAP sync imports those users from Active Directory into UCM. Without LDAP synchronization configured and running, user accounts will not exist in UCM and SAML assertions from the IdP cannot be mapped to valid UCM users, causing SSO to fail. The other options (Dialed Name, Authentication setup in this context, Network IP) are not mandatory prerequisites for SAML SSO.
