Basic settings
This step enables you to specify the basic settings for the data source. You can allocate a name and a description and specify whether the data source is connected automatically upon starting of the XPhone Connect Directory.
- Name
Enter a name to identify the data source. Select this name carefully, since it is part of the data set identification. If it is changed, permanently saved references to data sets become invalid. This name is later displayed in the XPhone Connect directory administration interface.
- Unique identifier [1]
The data source identifier identifies the data source clearly. It is used to create a unique and long-term reference to contact entries.
Only change this identifier in special cases.
This can be the case when, e.g. a data source has been deleted and replaced by a new one. In such a case, the name of the old data source can be replaced. You can find the identifier of a deleted data source in the event log or in the exported settings.
- Description
Enter an optional description of the data source here. Here you can enter an extended description that provides further information about the data source.
- Activate automatically upon start of the XPhone Connect Server
If you do not want the data source to be connected upon start of the XPhone Connect Server, uncheck the corresponding box (default active
). A connection to the data source is made immediately when the XPhone Connect Server is started.
