Specify an Automatic Phone Book Update Server
Applies To: Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2012
When you supply your users with a custom phone book with a lot of phone numbers in various cities they can use to access your dial-up network, those numbers are often subject to change. Connection Point Services (CPS) provides a service for the automatic maintenance of the phone books in your connection profiles. On the Specify an Automatic Phone Book Update Server of the CMAK wizard, you can specify the download location of the updated file. Every time a user connects by using this profile, Connection Manager checks this server to see if the phone book file has changed. If the file on the server is newer, Connection Manager downloads it and updates the phone book in the connection profile.
