Getting Started Guide for the VSX Series
Working with Directory Entries
The directory on your Polycom system stores dialing information that helps you make calls quickly and easily. When a site listed in the directory calls your system, the system displays the name on the screen when the call comes in. If a site that calls you is not listed in the directory, you might be prompted to save the contact information in the directory when the call ends.
If your system is registered with a global directory server, your directory contains two types of entries:
•Local entries: Information about sites that have been added to the local system. These entries are stored locally on your Polycom system, and depending on your system setup, you can remove or edit these entries. You can also assign local entries to categories to make it easier to find numbers. Everyone at your site who uses the system can use the entries you create, and you can use the entries created by others. Users at other sites cannot access the local entries on your system.
•Global entries: Information about other active sites that are registered with the same Global Directory Server. These entries are managed from the Global Directory Server, and you cannot edit them. You can make a local copy if you want to make changes.
Global entries are marked as 
available or 
offline.
