Local Directory Interface
The i2050 Software Phone Directory Interface allows the user to maintain a personal directory for placing calls. The directory may be stored with the i2050 Software Phone itself (by default in a local file named Directory.mdb); or linked to external directories. Linking to LDAP, Outlook, Windows Address Book (WAB) and ACT! directory types is supported.
Users can create, modify and delete entries in the local directory and may copy entries from external directories, the redial list and the caller lists into the local directory (select an entry, right click and select "Add to Local Directory …").
Directory lists can be "filtered" in simple or complex ways to show, for example, people who's last name starts with 'B' and work for "Nortel Networks".
Ten items from each of the Quick Dial, Caller List ad Redial List are also viewable from the Primary User Interface and the System Tray Interface.
The Quick Dial list is a shortcut to entries stored elsewhere (in the local directory or in an external directory). Callers list and Redial list are stored as lists within the i2050 Software Phone's directory storage file. Some communications servers do not provide caller identification to the i2050 Software Phone.
