Required Network Information
HTTP/HTTPS Server
Administer the HTTP or HTTPS file server and application as described in HTTP Generic Setup on page 66.
Network Time Protocol (NTP) Server
SIP IP telephones require NTP server support to set the time and date, used in system log time stamps and other time/date functions. The NTP server is typically needed by one or more servers within the enterprise. Administration of the NTP server is beyond the scope of this document.
Required Network Information
Before you administer DHCP and HTTP/HTTPS, as applicable, complete the information in Table 3. If you have more than one router, HTTP/TLS server and subnetwork mask in your configuration, complete Table 3 for each DHCP server.
The 9600 Series SIP IP Telephones support specifying a list of IP Addresses for a gateway/ router and the HTTP/HTTPS server. 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, 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 56 and DNS Addressing on page 98.
