4600 Series IP Telephone Installation

Dynamic Addressing Process

Note:

For IP telephones supporting the H.323 protocol, before starting this process you must have an extension number for the IP telephone and the Avaya Communication Manager security code (password) for that extension. An exception is when unnamed registration is enabled, which requires neither an extension nor password entry. For more information, see Unnamed Registration.

For IP telephones supporting the SIP protocol, before starting this process you must have an OPTIM extension number for the SIP telephone, the Avaya Communication Manager security code (password), and a login and password on the SES server.

The following description of the process of installing the IP telephones assumes that the process is executed successfully. Only an initial out of the box installation is described. For errors that might be encountered during the process and the messages displayed, see Chapter 4: Troubleshooting Guidelines.

Note:

Dynamic addressing is the only way to establish addressing parameters on the 4601/4601+ IP Telephones. Because it lacks a display, this telephone uses its LEDs to provide status indication. The instructions indicate processing exceptions or elaborations specifically for 4601 IP Telephones where applicable, and apply equally to the 4601+ IP Telephone.

When you plug the IP telephone set into the Ethernet wall jack and apply power, if applicable, the following process takes place.

Note:

If the application has already been downloaded, the whole process takes approximately 1 to 2 minutes after the telephone is plugged in. For an initial installation, including the application download, the process might take 5 - 10 minutes. The duration is based on LAN loading, how many telephones are being installed at once, and similar factors.

Do not unplug the power cord during the download process.
