Synchronizing Phonebooks
To synchronize phonebooks is to cause the list of allowable inbound
fax recipients on one FaxFinder server to be the same as that on
another FaxFinder server. Both FaxFinder servers must be
connected to the same Ethernet network. When FaxFinder
phonebooks are synchronized, all non-administrative listings match.
One FaxFinder unit (the Primary unit) holds the master list that is
transmitted (using the Synchronize Phonebooks command) to
other FaxFinder units in the system (Copy units). FaxFinder units
can operate in same system but have independent phonebooks, in
which case they are designated Independent.
Synchronizing phonebooks entails three steps:
1. Designating one FaxFinder as the master phone book. In the
main Device Manager screen, right-click on the unit to be
designated as master, scroll to Set Phone Book Sharing, and
select Primary.
