Introduction

The new 4600 Series IP Telephone product line uses Internet Protocol (IP) technology with Ethernet interfaces. The IP telephones supplement the existing DEFINITY IP Solutions platform.

The 4600 Series IP Telephones support DHCP and TFTP over IPv4/UDP which enhance the administration and servicing of the phones. These phones use DHCP to obtain dynamic IP addresses and TFTP to download new versions of software for the phones.

The 4600 Series IP Telephones provide the ability to have one IP connection on the desktop for both a telephone set and a PC using the telephone’s built-in hub.

For information on Voice over IP, see the 4600 Series IP Telephone LAN Administrator’s Guide.
