Location

The location settings are used to enable the right dailing and display of phone numbers.

Only with the right location settings it is possible that external phone numbers are dialed and displayed properly.

This section of the help file will describe the individual configuration parameters on the Location Settings dialog. If a location is depicted, the following pages will provide all information necessary for configuration. If several networked locations must be setup, all information for special configuration scenarios can be found in the Location Designs section.
