Operating parameters for the Corporate Directory

The user must have an M3903, M3904, or M3905 telephone to support the
Corporate Directory feature. To access the Corporate Directory from the
telephone, the user must have the Corporate Directory Class of Service
enabled.

When the Corporate Directory is beingupdated with new data, the user
cannot access the Corporate Directory. The user exits the Corporate Directory
by pressingthe Quit Key or the Applications Key.

The MAT or Optivity Telephony Manager (OTM) Corporate Directory utility
gathers data from the MAT or OTM databases and downloads it to the
Meridian 1 system. To use the Corporate Directory utility, MAT 6.6 or
OTM 1.0 or later must be installed. For Release 25.40, OTM must be used.

Virtual Office

The Virtual Office feature allows users to login to a designated M3903 or
M3904 telephone and use their individual telephone configurations at that
telephone. The calls to the user’s primary DN are routed to the Virtual Office
Host Terminal where the Virtual Office Worker is logged in.

The Host Terminal is the physical telephone that a user can use to login as a
Virtual Office worker. Both the M3903 and M3904 can be configured as Host
Terminals; however, a Virtual Office Worker is required to login to a Host
Terminal that matches their Virtual Terminal set type. For example, when the
Virtual Terminal of a Virtual Office Worker is configured as an M3904, the
login process is blocked if they attempt to login to an M3903 Host Terminal.

The Virtual Terminal is a set of features configured for a user and defined on
a phantom loop. There is no permanent physical telephone associated with a
Virtual Terminal.
