Dial By Name
Dial By Name enables extension users to call another extension or an external party by dialing the name of the
person, instead of dialing their telephone number.
This feature is accessible only to extension users of the Extended IP phones.
With Dial By Name, extension users need not remember the desired party's telephone number or short codes, i.e.
“Abbreviated Dialing” codes.
For each extension, the database for names used in Dial by Name is drawn from:
• the Personal Directory , which is assigned to each extension, wherein up to 25 external party numbers
along with their names may stored. The system uses the Personal Directory to dial external parties by their
names. See
“Abbreviated Dialing” to know more.
• Global Directory , which is assigned to the extension in its “Class of Service (CoS)” . The Global Directory
is a system-wide list of external party numbers and names. Up to 999 numbers can be stored in this
directory, and parts of the Global Directory (Part 1, 2, 3) can be assigned to each extension in its Class of
Service. See
“Abbreviated Dialing” to know more.
• Names of Extensions , which are names of users. Their names are assigned to SLT and SIP extensions
to identify the extension users. Names of Extensions are necessary for making internal calls using the Dial
By Name feature.
