RMX 2000 Administrator's Guide Version 7.6.1 - Polycom

Address Book
7
The Address Book stores information about the people and businesses you communicate
with. The Address Book stores, among many other fields, IP addresses, phone numbers and
network communication protocols used by the participant’s endpoint. By utilizing the
Address Book users are able to quickly and efficiently assign or designate participants to
conferences. Groups defined in the Address Book help facilitate the creation of conferences.
Participants can be added to the Address Book individually or in Groups.
The maximum of number of Address Book entries that can be defined is:
• RMX 1500 — 4000
• RMX 2000 — 4000
• RMX 4000 — 4000
When using the Polycom CMA Global Address Book, all entries are listed.
Importing and exporting of Address Books enables organizations to seamlessly distribute
up-to-date Address Books to multiple RMX units. It is not possible to distribute Address
Books to external databases running on applications such as Polycom’s ReadiManager (SE200)
or Polycom CMA. External databases can run in conjunction with RMX units, but must be
managed from the external application, e.g. new participants cannot be added to the
external database from the RMX Web Client. To enable the RMX to run with an external
database such as Polycom CMA, the appropriate system configuration flags must be set.
For more information, see "Modifying System Flags” on page 21-1.
Integration with Polycom CMA Global Address Book is supported. For more information, see
"Integrating the Polycom CMA Address Book with the RMX” on page 7-19. Integration with the
SE200 GAB (Global Address Book) is not supported.
