XPhone Connect Server services

1. Basic settings

In this step, you can determine the basic settings for the client interface. You can allocate a name and a description and specify whether the client interface is connected automatically upon starting of the XPhone Connect Directory.

1. Name

   Enter a name for the client interface you want to add. This name is later displayed in the XPhone Connect Directory administrator interface.

2. Description

   As an option, enter a description of the client interface. Here you can enter an extended description that provides further information about the client interface.

3. Activate automatically upon start of the XPhone Connect Server

   If you do not want the client interface to be connected upon start of the XPhone Connect Server, uncheck the corresponding box (default setting: ).

Hint

As the client interface name is a component of the URL for accessing the AppLink, not all characters are allowed. Only use upper/lower-case letters and numbers in the client interface name.

2. Telephone number conversion

This step enables you to specify a dialling parameter for each data source or client interface with which automatically completes phone numbers as required with the XPhone Connect Directory. The XPhone Connect Directory uses dialling parameters to standardize the phone numbers of contacts from various data sources; in other words, to give them a uniform format. This is the only way to ensure that the users find the correct contact data during a search.

1. Select a telephone number conversion

   Here, you select the dialling parameter describing the telephone number format at the location of the users who use this client interface. It is used, for example, to convert a telephone number in international format into the shortest possible display form to achieve the best possible readability for the user.

2. Selecting the format

   Select a format from the list in which the telephone numbers are to be displayed.

3. Limitation of search results

In this step, the maximum number of hits can be specified.

• Restricting the number of hits relieves the data sources connected. Too many search results cannot be recorded by users and are an indication of too extensive search criteria.

4. Overview

In this step, you can check the settings you made for the client interface. Make sure that all settings made are correct.

How to complete the configuration

1. Click on Save to complete the configuration and to add the client interface to the XPhone Connect Directory.

2. Click Cancel to discard the configuration.

3. Continuing with field allocation

   

   Click on Continue with field allocation to adapt the allocation of the fields of the XPhone Connect Directory allocation scheme to the fields of the client interface.

   • If you created a new configuration, you will be asked to save the configuration first.

   • If you opened a new configuration, you can continue with the allocation.
