Using the Global Address Book
You can access the Global Address Book (GAB) if your organization
uses Polycom's Global Management System
(GMS) software
and the ViewStation is set to subscribe to the GAB server. The GAB
provides ViewStation users with easy, one-button dialing to an
endpoint in the global address book. The GAB automatically
captures and updates ViewStation dialing information, country
codes, and preferred line speeds.
To place a call, select a name from the Address Book list.
The following icons on the Address Book screen indicate GAB
status and individual address status.
For more information about GMS software, see the Polycom Web
site at www.polycom.com.
Using Multi-Point Address Book Entries
Adding multi-point entries into the ViewStation MP address book or
the GAB allows the ViewStation to call several sites at one time
using one address book entry.
If you delete a single site entry from the address book and that entry
is part of a multi-point address book entry, the multi-point address
book entry is automatically deleted from the address book.
The display of this icon indicates the ViewStation is
connected to the GAB server. When the icon rotates, it
indicates that the ViewStation is actively accessing the
GAB server for addresses. Notice the icon rotating as you
scroll through the address book entries.
This icon indicates that the selected address is an address
from the GAB. You cannot edit or delete global addresses
from your ViewStation. You can perform these tasks only
from the GAB console.
This icon lets you save a global address entry to your local
address book.
This icon lets you delete addresses from the ViewStation.
