Creating a Localized System Name with the Web Interface

Localized system names are sent to the far site and displayed as the caller ID
by Polycom HDX systems running version 1.0 or later or VSX systems running
version 8.0 or later. When you enter a localized system name, it is also entered
in English/Pinyin. The English/Pinyin name is the name used by the Global
Directory Server, the gatekeeper, and other systems that do not support this
feature, and it is also the name that shows up in the Recent Calls list.

To create a localized system name using the web interface:

1.

On a computer, open a web browser.

2.

In the browser address line, enter the system’s IP address, for example,
http://10.11.12.13

, to go to the web interface.

3.

Go to Admin Settings > General Settings > System Settings.

4.

Enter the localized system name in the appropriate language field.

Managing Directories with the Web Interface
