Local entries are entries that you create, modify, and maintain in the ViaVideo address book. These addresses are stored locally, and do not appear in other users’ address books. When you select a local entry in the address book, the Delete icon is displayed in place of the Global icon.

To create a local entry, open your address book and click New. You can then enter the name, number, H.323 extension (if applicable) and select your preferred line speed when calling this entry. Click Save to save the entry to your address book.
