SIP Integration Factors

CODECs

The SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephones are compatible with the G.711µ-law and G.711a-law codecs. There is no setting required on the handset.

DHCP

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a standardized protocol that enables clients to be dynamically assigned with various configuration parameters, such as an IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and other critical network configuration information. DHCP servers centrally manage such configuration data, and are configured by network administrators with settings that are appropriate for a given network environment. The handset will use the following DHCP options if DHCP use is enabled:

Option	Meaning
1	Subnet mask
3	Default gateway
6	DNS server
15	Domain name
66	TFTP server
151	SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server
152	SpectraLink 8000 OAI Gateway
siaddr	Boot server or next server

DNS

Domain Name System (DNS), an industry-standard protocol, locates computers on an IP-based network. IP networks rely on number- based addresses to move information on the network. However, it is easier to remember user-friendly names than number-based addresses, so it is necessary to translate user-friendly names into addresses that the network can recognize. The handset will use DNS
