Network Config
IP Addresses
There are two modes in which the handset can operate: DHCP-
enabled or Static IP. Select the mode for operation from the IP
Address menu:
* Use DHCP Will use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol to assign
an IP Address each time the handset is turned on. If DHCP is enabled,
the handset also receives all other IP Address configurations from the
DHCP server.
Static IP Allows you to manually set a fixed IP Address. If selected, the
handset will prompt for the IP addresses for each configurable
network component. When entering addresses, enter the digits only,
including leading zeroes. No periods are required.
Regardless of the mode in which the handset is operating, the
following components are required and must be configured as part of
the SIP system:
Phone IP The IP address of the handset. This is automatically
assigned if DHCP is used. If using Static IP configuration, you
must obtain a unique IP address for each handset from your
network administrator.
Default Gateway and Subnet Mask Used to identify subnets, when
using a complex network, which includes routers. Both of these
must be configured either with an IP address under Static IP (not
set to 000.000.000.000 or 255.255.255.255) or with DHCP for the
handset to contact any network components on a different subnet.
If configured on the DHCP server, use option 3 for the Default
Gateway and option 1 for the Subnet Mask. Contact the network
administrator for the proper settings for the network.
