Each entry includes the name of the party called and an icon that indicates whether the number is a voice
or video number. If the system receives a call but does not answer it, the call appears in the
REDIAL list as a missed call. The symbol appears next to the name in the entry.
Adjust the maximum number of entries in the REDIAL list in User Preferences : Calls : Maximum Redial
Entries. You can also remove or lock entries; and add entries from the REDIAL list to the local directory.
