Setting Up the IP 710 Phone

To set up the IP 705 phone, follow these instructions:

1.Gather network settings information (this information is needed to configure the IP 710):

•AltiWare server IP address

•IP 710 phone’s IP address

This address is needed if your company does not use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), which automatically assigns IP addresses to devices when they are connected to the network. The phone’s IP address can be obtained from your system administrator.

2.Connect the IP 710:

a.Connect the phone to the LAN that AltiServ is on.

b.Connect the handset to the handset port.

c.Connect an Ethernet cable from another network device, such as a desktop computer, to the PC access port on the phone (optional).

d.Connect the power plug to the DC port.

Note: If you want to use Power over Ethernet, see “To Use IP 710 in Power over Ethernet Mode” on page 16.

3. Configure startup network settings. (To display the phone’s menu, as

required below, press the Menu button on the phone. Use the / buttons to scroll the menus and settings in the LCD screen. Press the Enter button to select a menu item or a setting.)

If you are using DHCP, ensure that DHCP is enabled on the IP 710 phone: Menu > NETWORK > ENABLE DHCP > Yes. (DHCP is enabled by default.)

If your company does not use DHCP, disable DHCP on the IP 705 phone: Menu > NETWORK > ENABLE DHCP > No. In this case, configure the following network settings on the IP 705 after setting up the phone:

•Local IP address

•IP subnet mask
