SIP Account Properties – Storage

Typically, you leave the storage method as Local. However, if your VoIP service provider provides access to an
XCap or WebDav server, you can choose to store some contact data on that server. The following contact data
gets stored on the server:

Softphone numbers and display names from contacts created manually or from a corporate directory or by
importing from a file. Other data from these contacts does not get stored on this server.

Softphone numbers from contacts pulled in from Outlook, when the number has a domain (e.g.
“myEnterprise.com”) that matches the domain of this SIP account. Other data from these contacts does not
get stored on this server.

XMPP contact data does not get stored on this server.
