Importing and Exporting the Global Directory

Information on Importing the Directory

Click on this button to import a comma-delimited (.csv) address book exported from another Global Directory, which
can be from a Global Management System server or Polycom ReadiManager LX100 unit. Use this feature to share
address book information between sites that cannot register with the same Global Directory server. For example,
a satellite office without a full-time Internet connection might want to periodically import address books from the
corporate server. This allows a video endpoint at a remote office to have dialing information of other systems within
that organization. These imported addresses will be normalized with GlobalDial for the location of the remote
sales office.

NOTE
Keep Import entries as Static Addresses as deselected when importing an address directory containing endpoints
that will register with the Global Directory.
This will prevent the Global Directory, you are importing to, from removing dynamic entries that register with the
Global Directory that you are exporting from. If this imported directory contains video endpoints that report to
another Global Directory server, these endpoint entries cannot be dynamic entries to this Global Directory.
By leaving that check box deselected, the Global Directory will remove the imported dynamic entries that do not
register with Global Directory within 35 minutes. Static addresses will not be removed from the Global Directory
unless a user removes it manually.
NOTE
If "Do not overwrite existing static address entries" box remains unchecked, static address entries with the same
name and protocol type will be modified with the import address information. If there is no existing entry with the
same name and protocol a new static address entry will be added.
