IP Address
There are two modes in which the Wireless Telephone 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 Wireless Telephone is turned on. If DHCP is enabled, the Wireless Telephone 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 Wireless Telephone will prompt for the IP Addresses of 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 Wireless Telephone is operating, the following components must be configured:
Phone IP – the IP Address of the Wireless Telephone. This is automatically assigned if DHCP is used. If using Static IP configuration, you must obtain a unique IP Address for each phone from your network administrator.
SVP Server IP – the IP Address of the NetLink SVP Server. If using Static IP configuration, this is simply the IP Address of the NetLink SVP Server. Note that the NetLink SVP Server must be statically configured to have a permanent IP Address. If DHCP is being used, the Wireless Telephone will try the following, in order: the DHCP option 151, then a DNS lookup of “SLNKSVP2” if the DHCP options 6 (DNS Server) and 15 (Domain Name) are configured.
RTC IP Addr – the IP Address of the primary Mitel Networks device. If using Static IP configuration, this is simply the IP Address of the device. If DHCP is being used, the Wireless Telephone will try to obtain the device’s IP Address and port information using the following DHCP options: 129.
The following components may be configured optionally:
TFTP Server IP – the IP Address of a TFTP server on your network which holds software images for updating the Wireless Telephones. If this feature is configured (not set to 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255) either via Static IP configuration or using DHCP option 66 (TFTP Server), or the Boot server/next server (siaddr) field, the Wireless Telephone will check for newer software each time it is powered on or comes back into range of your network. This check takes only a second and ensures that all Wireless Telephones in your network are kept
OAI Server IP – the IP Address of the SpectraLink OAI Gateway (if applicable). If using Static IP configuration, this is simply the IP Address of the SpectraLink OAI Gateway. If DHCP is being used, the Wireless Telephone will try the DHCP option 152.
Default Gateway and Subnet Mask – used to identify subnets, when using a complex network which includes routers. Both of these must be configured (not set to 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255) for the Wireless Telephone to contact any network components on a different subnet. They can be set using either Static IP configuration or via DHCP options 3 (Default Gateway) and 1 (Subnet Mask) respectively. Contact your network
