Cisco Cisco TelePresence Management Suite (TMS) Version 15 Maintenance Manual
Setting the Phone Book Type For All Systems
To set which type of phone book will be used:
1.
Go to
Administrative Tools > Configuration > General Settings
.
2.
In the
General Settings
section, set Cisco System Phone Books to one of the following:
—
Use centralized TMS phone books only (corporate phone book)
—
Use both centralized and downloaded phone books (both)
—
Use global phone books downloaded to systems only (global phone book)
We recommend opting for
corporate phone book or both, as the downloaded phone book is only sup-
ported by legacy TANDBERG endpoints.
The default setting is
both, which will make the global directory available should the corporate directory
live search fail.
