Figure 23: Searching for a contact
To add a contact from the remote directory to your favorites, first find the entry. From the
Avaya XT Series web interface, select Add to favorites next to the contact’s name. From
the endpoint interface, select the entry with the right-arrow and choose Add to favorites.
When using a third-party LDAP server as your contacts list, you can see contacts from this
remote directory only. To view your favorites, see Deployment Guide for Avaya XT Series
or ask your administrator.
3. To add a new contact, access the local contacts list. From the Avaya XT Series web
interface, select Make your call > Basic Options > Contacts > New Favorite. From the
endpoint's main menu, select Contacts > New Favorite.
You can also add a contact from the recent calls list (see further down below).
Enter the following details. When you are done, select Save (web interface only).
