Polycom Directory xml file

Posted by ipfreely on

What is the best way to call this file, for handsets to pick it up?
Do you rename it by MAC Address?
What if I want multiple phones sharing the same directory, should I just rename it and manually edit the ${MAC}.cfg file?

Thanks,
Chris A

its macaddr-directory~.xml and its in whatever subdirectory you define in CONTACTS_DIRECTORY of the mac.cfg file. your polycom phone uploads this file whenever entries are added to the contact directory of the phone; if you push a new file after entries are added to the phone they will blow away all the previous entries.

Hi Erik,
I tried entering a contact on a polycom phone manually, the config file lists the CONTACTS_DIRECTOY as Contacts in the .cfg file, but nothing get uploaded when I enter the contact at the phone, any thoughts?

Thanks,
