Required Network Information
Required Network Information
Before you administer DHCP and HTTP, and TLS, as applicable, complete the information in Table 3. If you have more than one Gateway, HTTP/TLS server, subnetwork mask, and Gatekeeper in your configuration, complete Table 3 for each DHCP server.
The 1600 Series IP Telephones support specifying a list of IP addresses for a gateway/router, HTTP/HTTPS server, and Avaya Media Server Gatekeeper(s). Each list can contain up to 255 total ASCII characters, with IP addresses separated by commas with no intervening spaces.
Depending on the specific DHCP application, only 127 characters might be supported.
When specifying IP addresses for the file server or media server, use either dotted decimal format (“xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx”) or DNS names. If you use DNS, the system value DOMAIN is appended to the IP addresses you specify. If DOMAIN is null, the DNS names must be fully qualified, in accordance with IETF RFCs 1034 and 1035. For more information about DNS, see DHCP Generic Setup on page 44 and DNS Addressing on page 76.
Table 3: Required Network Information Before Installation - Per DHCP Server
1.Gateway (router) IP address(es)
2.HTTP server IP address(es)
3.Subnetwork mask
4.Avaya Media Server Gatekeeper IP address(es)
5. Avaya Media Server Gatekeeper port Although this can be a value between 0 and 65535, the default value is 1719. Do not change the default value unless that value conflicts with an existing port assignment.
6.HTTP server file path
7.Telephone IP address range
From:
To:
8. | DNS server address(es) | If applicable. |
|
|
|
9. | HTTPS server address(es) | If applicable. |
|

The file server file path is the “root” directory used for all transfers by the server. All files are uploaded to or downloaded from this default directory. In configurations where the upgrade script and application files are in the default directory, do not use item 6 in Table 3.
As the LAN or System Administrator, you are also responsible for:
●Administering the DHCP server as described in Chapter 5: Server Administration.
●Editing the configuration file on the applicable HTTP or HTTPS file server, as covered in 1600 Series IP Telephone Scripts and Application Files.
