Global Directory Configuration

Global Directory Password

The Administration Password gives the video endpoints access to the Global Directory and its
administration tools. If this password is set on the Global Directory server, the password must
be entered in the video endpoint's Global Address Preferences screen before a user can access
the Global Directory. If the server has no password set, the password field in the Global Address
Book Preferences screen must be left blank.

NOTE
If the password is changed all endpoints that access the Global Directory must be configured
with the new password or they will lose their connection to the server the next time the
endpoint is turned off and then turned back on.
If you choose to have password protection when using the Global Directory, the password
must be set in the Global Directory server.
