Central Directory access tool

The Central Directory access tool connects a directory to the SIP DECT system.
The Central Directory Access feature is available only for handsets that support it.
After you install the Central Directory access tool, the tool provides two services that run under
Windows. No user interface is available. TCP/IP Port 30160 is open for external access from
the IP DECT system.
IP DECT connects to the Central Directory access tool through the TCP/IP socket defined in
the IP DECT Configurator tool.
For access to the database, the handset type must support access to the database through
the handset menu. If the handset menu does not offer an option to access the Central Directory,
you cannot use Central Directory on that handset type. Consult your SIP DECT supplier to find
the handset types that support Central Directory dialing.
Supported database types
Avaya supports using Flat Excel database as a database type for a Central directory access
tool.
Create an Excel file for the central database
You can create a an Excel sheet to contain your central database. When you install the Central
directory access tool, specify the path to the Excel file and the file name.
