SoundPoint IP phones can used with Microsoft Live Communications

 

Server 2005 and Microsoft Office Communicator to help improve business

 

efficiencies and increase productivity and to share ideas and information

 

immediately with business contacts.

 

For instructions on changing the configuration files, refer to Configuration File

 

Examples on page 4-62.

Note

 

Any contacts added through the SoundPoint IP phone’s buddy list will appear in as

 

a contact in Microsoft Office Communicator and Windows Messenger.

 

 

 

 

 

Polycom recommends that the BLF not be used in conjunction with the Microsoft

 

Live Communications Server 2005 feature. For more information, refer to Busy
