Usage tips
Principal
device
address
The address or alias of the user's
first
principal device
. An
administrator (or FindMe users
themselves) can add more endpoint
addresses after an account has
been created.
After the account has been created any non-principal
devices (including any devices added by FindMe users
themselves) can be set as principal devices. This has the
effect of stopping the user from being able to delete that
device. To do this, click
Edit principal devices
from the
Edit
FindMe account
page.
If the
Starter Pack
option key is installed, there is a
separate section for specifying the user's principal devices
(see below).
Password
The password to be used, along with
the
Username
, when logging into
this account.
You must confirm any new or
modified password.
FindMe users can change their password after they have
logged in. Note that passwords are case sensitive, and that
the password fields are not shown if remote authentication is
enabled.
FindMe
type
Specifies if the account is for an
individual person or a group of
people, and affects how calls are
diverted when endpoints in the
user's primary list are busy.
Individual
: calls immediately divert if
any primary endpoint is busy.
Group of people
: calls immediately
divert only if all primary endpoints
are busy.
If the
Starter Pack
option key is installed all FindMe IDs are
created as
Individual
accounts.
You can control general FindMe behavior, including whether users are allowed to add their own devices, on
the
Configuring FindMe [p.252]
page.
Principal devices (Starter Pack)
The
Principal devices
section is used to specify the principal devices that are associated with the FindMe
profile and to enable provisioning for those devices. This section only displays if the
Starter Pack
option key
is installed.
Principal devices are devices assigned to the profile by the system administrator and cannot be deleted by
the FindMe user. Note that users can add other, non-principal, devices to their FindMe profiles.
To assign a principal device, select
On
for the relevant device type. The page will then display the URI that
will be assigned for that user and device type. You can assign as many devices as required.
The device URI is based on a combination of the
Username
,
FindMe ID
and device type. It takes the format
<username>.<device type>@<domain portion of FindMe ID>
.
For example, if the
Username
is
Alice.Smith
and the
FindMe ID
is
, then the
URI for an E20 device would be
.
n
Each selected device is automatically provisioned (with bandwidth limits and phone book information, for
example) when that device registers to the VCS.
n
You can specify an additional principal device by setting
Other device
to
On
and then specifying the
required
URI
of the device. If required, you can add further non-principal devices by clicking
Edit user
from
the
Edit FindMe account
page.
