Local Directories from YMCS

  • Updated

Do you want to push out a local directory to your Yealink handsets from one central place? You've come to the right place.

Note: You cannot push out directories onto Yealink cordless handsets, such as 
the W60Bs etc from YCMS

 

Prerequisites:

  • Your Yealink handsets need to be connected to and online on the YMCS platform
    • Telair Support can do this for you if not already done.
  • Login details for the YMCS portal
    • If you do not have access, you can request this by emailing the Telair Support team on support@telair.com.au
  • A list of contacts you would like to have in your handset directories

How to:

  1. Log into YMCS and select the "Resource Management" option on the left-hand side.
