Polycom Virtual Phone (SVE2)

Description

When using Personal User Mobility, the phones in the directory are virtual phones. Only when a user logs in onto a phone, the physical phone assumes the role of a virtual phone. The virtual phone contains the user's personal settings (e.g. speeddials) that can be carried around between physical phones. This virtual phone resource is for use with Polycom phones.

Resource configuration parameters

This resource allows and administrator to configure a Virtual phone usable by the Personal Mobility Module. This resource is compatible only with Polycom physical phone. The parameters indicated in this configuration erase the configuration of the physical phone. However, if a parameter configured in the physical phone exists and is not configured in the virtual phone configuration, the parameter of the physical phone will be used.

  • Directory Policy:
    • If set to 'from server directory', the corporate directory will be composed of the list of visible contacts ordered by last name as configured in the SMP.
    • If set to 'Local', the corporate directory will be manageable by the user through the phone. When the phone reboots, the contacts configured by the user will persist in memory.
    • If set to 'from a subset of the server directory', the corporate directory will be composed of the list of visible contacts ordered by last name as configured in the SMP. However, in order to only import from the server a subset of the server directory where the 'key' contains a specific 'value'.
    • On the SoundPoint IP 330/320 and the SoundStation IP 6000 and 7000, the maximum number of contacts is 99.

  • Extension to supervise: A list of speed dial buttons (extension which are frequently called). Th e phone will associate the first speed dial to the first available line key (Line 2, Line 3, ...). The remaining contacts will be available through the phone menu:'Features > Speed Dials'. The number of line keys depends of the phone model. For example, the IP330 has 2 line keys (1 available), the IP 501 has 3 line keys (2 available) and a IP 650 with 3 Expansion module has 48 line keys (47 available).
