Chapter 3 - Configuring Network Use

Setting the Dialing Rules

If your system is connected to your organization’s private network and also to a public network, you may need to specify the codes and prefixes necessary for dialing other systems. If your system is connected only to a public network, you do not need to enter any dialing rules.

When you define dialing rules, your system’s Address Book can display dialing information about other videoconferencing systems correctly, including all of the numbers, area codes, country codes, and international dialing access codes necessary for making calls from this system. For example, if your system is in Melbourne, the Address Book displays the correct numbers and codes for dialing systems in Paris, New York, and Cape Town, just as they should be dialed from Melbourne.

When you place a call using the Global Address Book, your system chooses the call type using these guidelines:
