Managing the Address Book
Guidelines
●
The multi-level
Address Book
can only be used in a local configuration on the Collaboration Server.
The hierarchical structure cannot be implemented with the
Global Address Book
(GAB).
●
Up to ten levels can be defined in the hierarchical structure of the Address Book.
●
The default name of the root level is “Main”. The “Main” root level cannot be deleted but the root level
name can be modified.
●
Address Book names support multilingual characters.
●
Participants in the
Address Book
can be copied to multiple groups. However, only one participant
exists in the
Address Book
. Groups that contain the same participants refer to the same definition
of the participant entity.
Adding a Participant to the Address Book
Adding participants to the Address Book can be performed by the following methods:
●
Directly in the Address Book.
●
Moving or saving a participant from an ongoing conference to the Address Book.
When adding dial-out participants to the ongoing conference, the system automatically dials out to the
participants using the Network Service (IP) defined for the connection in the participant properties.
Adding a New participant to the Address Book Directly
You can add a new participant to the “Main” group or to a group in the
Address Book
. Additionally, you can
add a participant from a new conference, ongoing conference, or
Conference Template
.
To add a new participant to the Address Book:
1
In the
Address Book
-
Navigation
pane, select the group to where you want to add the new
participant.
2
Click the
New Participant
button (
) or right-click the group to where you want to add the
participant and select the
New Participant
option.
Alternatively, click anywhere in the
List
pane and select the
New Participant
option.
