Directory Groups

Having groups in the directory can help users find calling information quickly

and easily. Polycom QDX 6000 systems support global groups and local

groups.

Global Directory Groups

Global directory entries are assigned to a global group with the name that you

specify in the Directory Server configuration. Polycom QDX 6000 systems can

display up to 2,500 Polycom GDS global directory entries. Up to 100 search

results can be displayed at a time from an LDAP global directory. If the

Polycom QDX 6000 system is registered to an LDAP directory server by a

Polycom CMA system, it can display up to 200 groups within the Polycom

Directory group. Users cannot edit or delete global directory entries or global

directory groups.
