Remote phone book is a centrally maintained phone book, stored on the remote server.
Users only need the access URL of the remote phone book. The IP phone can establish a
connection with the remote server and download the phone book, and then display the
remote phone book entries on the phone user interface. IP phones support up to 5
remote phone books. Remote phone book is customizable.
You can customize the remote phone book for IP phones as required. You can also add
multiple remote contacts at a time and/or share remote contacts between IP phones
using the supplied template files (Menu.xml and Department.xml). The Menu.xml file
defines departments of a remote phone book. The Department.xml file defines contact
lists for a department, which is nested in Menu.xml file. After setup, place the files
(Menu.xml and Department.xml) to the provisioning server, and specify the access URL
of the file (Menu.xml) in the configuration files.
You can ask the distributor or Yealink FAE for remote XML phone book template. You can
also obtain the remote XML phone book template online:

. For more
information on obtaining the remote phone book template, refer to Obtaining
Configuration Files and Resource Files on page 52 .
When creating a Department.xml file, learn the following:

<YealinkIPPhoneDirectory> indicates the start of a department file and
</YealinkIPPhoneDirectory> indicates the end of a department file.

Create contact lists for a department between <DirectoryEntry> and
</DirectoryEntry>.
To customize a Department.xml file:
1. Open the template file using an ASCII editor.
2. For each contact that you want to add, add the following strings to the file. Each
starts on a separate line:
<Name>
Test1
</Name>
<Telephone>
23000
</Telephone>
