Add an Address Book
You can add many address books to the RealPresence Resource Manager
system, and each address book can have up to 100 tiers.
Tiers are only meant to allow you to organize the address book contents. They
will not be visible to endpoint users when they access the directory. Each tier
can have up to three subtiers., and you can have address book entries at any
tier level.
Associating users, endpoints, rooms, groups, and guests with an address book
controls where these entities appear. For example, if you associate user A with
address book A, the user will appear as an entry in address book A. You can
associate any of these entities with more than one address book, and the entity
will appear as entry in each address book.
Groups in the RealPresence Resource Manager system control the address
book users, endpoints, and rooms have access to. To set which address book
an entity has access to, see “Assign Address Books to Groups” on page 488.
