Obtained automatically

if you want your phone to be assigned a dynamic IP address by

a DHCP server in your local network. No further settings are necessary for the local net-

work.
Select

Static

if you would like to set up a static IP address for your phone. A static IP address

is useful, for example, if port forwarding or a DMZ is set up on the router for the phone.

The following fields are displayed when you select

:

IP address

Enter an IP address for your phone. This IP address allows your phone to be reached by

other subscribers in your local network (e.g. PC).
192.168.2.2 has been preset.
Please note the following:
– The IP address must be from the address block for private use that is used in the

router. This is generally in the range 192.168.0.1 – 192.168.255.254 with

Subnet

mask

255.255.255.0. The subnet mask determines that the first three parts of the IP

address must be identical for all subscribers in your LAN.

– The static IP address must not belong to the address block (IP pool range) that is

reserved for the DHCP server of the router. It must also not be used by another device

on the router.

If necessary, check the settings on the router.

Subnet mask

Enter the subnet mask for your device's IP address. For addresses from the address block

192.168.0.1 – 192.168.255.254, the subnet mask 255.255.255.0 is generally used.

This is preconfigured when the phone is supplied.

Default gateway

Enter the IP address for the standard gateway, by means of which the local network is

connected with the Internet. This is generally the local (private) IP address for your

router (e.g. 192.168.2.1). Your phone requires this information to be able to access the

Internet.
192.168.2.1 has been preset.
