[asterisk-users] Push central phone book to phones

[Andrew Thomas]

For the Yealink - you can use a 'remote' XML file.  The XML is stored on
a web server and is retrieved by the phone every time you press the
phones 'key'.  This has the advantage of not needing the directory to be
pushed to the handset - and the handset always gets the latest version.

Of course, the XML file needs to be kept up to date every time someone's
name/extn changes.
