IP Office [15-601082] Issue [1] (1 June 2006)
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, users are
better at remembering friendly names than number-based addresses, so, it is necessary to translate
user-friendly names into addresses that the network can recognize. The wireless phone will use DNS to
automatically translate names into IP addresses for these components: TFTP server, AVPP and IP
Office.
Several conditions (new phone, Extension Error, Password Error, and Extension in use) can result in the
wireless phone asking the user for a new extension and password. The entry process is described
below. When a new extension or password is being entered, the asterisk (*) key can be used to back up
and correct an error.
The wireless phone will display:
Ext. =XXX
#=OK New =
At this point, a new extension can be entered, or if # is pressed, the wireless phone will retain the current
extension.
After a new extension is entered, press # to continue.
The wireless phone will then display:
Password = ********
# = OK
A new password can be entered at this time, or if # is pressed, the wireless phone will continue with its
current password.
After a new password is entered, press # to continue.
If the IP Office unit (or all, if there is more than one) does not recognize the extension that the phone is
trying to register with, the wireless phone will display:
Extension Error
This will last 5 seconds, and then the wireless hone will ask the user to enter a new extension and
password.
