Address

When an address is required in a procedure, enter either a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) address or a telephone number. A SIP address is a unique identifier of users on the IP network. The SIP address has the same format as an e-mail address, for example, jdoe@lab1.org, but it is not an e-mail address. The network can identify where you are and route your calls by tracking your SIP address when you sign in to any Multimedia PC Client, Nortel IP Phone.

To make it easier to place calls, you can store addresses (SIP addresses or telephone numbers) in your personal address book.

Global address book

Your global address book lists all the registered users on your network. With the Personal Agent, you can search for a user name, user ID, first name, last name, or phone number. You initiate a call by clicking an entry in your global address book. Your service provider or system administrator maintains this list. This is an optional feature and can be turned off by your system administrator.

Personal address book

You can use your personal address book to manage addresses. You can save your addresses for quick access, as well as organize addresses into groups. Your personal address book is synchronized across all your network access devices. If you make a change in your personal address book on the Personal Agent, the change automatically appears on your other network access devices (for example, your Multimedia PC Client and your IP Phone).

Friends

In your personal address book, you can designate entries as Friends. When you mark an address book entry as a Friend, you can see the online presence status for that entry in the Multimedia PC Client, or IP Phone.
