Configuration changes can performed centrally at the boot server or locally:
Local Contact Directory
The phone maintains a local contact directory. The directory can be
downloaded from the boot server and edited locally (if configured in that
way). Contact information from previous calls may be easily added to the
directory for convenient future access.
The directory is the central database for several other features including
speed-dial, distinctive incoming call treatment, presence, and instant
messaging.
