For incoming calls, in addition to the audible ring and ringer light, the phone displays information about the caller.
Name Matching
Where possible, the IP Office system displays a name rather than a caller's number.
For internal callers, all users and groups have names in the IP Office system configuration.
For external callers, it tries to match the caller's number to names in the systems directory. It can also match the number to a name in your personal directory. A personal directory match overrides any system directory match.
