Description
Dials a directory (address book) entry. Requires the
name of the entry.
The name of the directory (address book) entry. The
name may be up to 25 characters. Use quotation marks
around strings that contain spaces. For example:
"John Doe".
Dials a video call number dialstr1 at speed of type h323
or h320. Requires the parameters "speed" and
"dialstr". Allows the user to automatically dial a
number. The system first attempts H.323 and if that
fails, rolls over to H.320.
Valid data rate for the network.
Valid ISDN or IP directory number.
Dials a video call number dialstr1 at speed of type h323
or h320. Requires the parameters "speed" and
"dialstr1".
Use dial manual "speed" "dialstr" "type" when
you do not want automatic call rollover or when the
dialstring might not convey the intended transport (for
example, an extension with an IP gateway might look
like an ISDN number, but in fact corresponds to an IP
address).
Specifies speed for two-channel calls.
Type of call.
Note: The parameters ip and isdn are deprecated.
Dials an analog phone number.
Numeric string specifying the phone number to dial.
Enclose the string in quotation marks if it includes
spaces. Example: "512 555 1212"
