3.11.3.2. Phone Configuration 
The phone configuration provides information needed in order to access
the OpenScape 4000 SoftGate as well as information about the mode of
operation.
The configuration can either be performed via the local phone menu,
the Web interface (WBM) or via the OpenScape Deployment Service (DLS).
Configuration via the phone menu
Admin > Applications >XML applications > Add application
This is basically the data for connectivity to the server hosting
the feature (usually OpenScape 4000 SoftGate) and the mode of operation.

Phone canonical settings
For retrieval of contact data from the LDAP directory server, the
remote telephone number is converted according to the canonical dial
settings (Admin > Local functions > Locality > Canonical
settings) when a call arrives. The format of the resulting number
should match the format the numbers are stored under on the LDAP directory
server. It is recommended to convert the numbers to fully qualified format,
i.e. adding country and area code to the subscriber number. This ensures
that the number used for lookup is unique.
