Cisco Systems ATA 186 Voice Configuration Menu, Without Using a DHCP Server, 3-20, Procedure

Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for MGCP

Voice Configuration Menu

Without Using a DHCP Server

Use the following procedure if you are not using a DHCP server in your environment but are still using a TFTP server to obtain the Cisco ATA configuration file:

Procedure

Step 1 Set the DHCP parameter to 0.

Step 2 Set the UseTFTP parameter to 1.

Step 3 Set the Cisco ATA parameter TftpURL to the IP address or URL of the TFTP server. For more information on setting the TftpURL parameter, see the “TftpURL” section on page 5-5.

Note If you are not using a DHCP server to provide the TFTP server location, you must manually enter the TftpUrl using either the voice configuration menu or the Web configuration page.

Step 4 If you have done already done so, statically configure the following parameters using the voice configuration menu (see the “Voice Configuration Menu” section on page 3-20). These are the parameters you need to configure for the Cisco ATA to obtain network connectivity:

•StaticIP

•StaticRoute

•StaticNetMask

Other parameters that are normally supplied by DHCP may be provided statically by configuring their values. These parameters are:

•DNS1IP

•DNS2IP

•NTPIP

•AltNTPIP

•Domain

This completes the parameter settings you need to configure in order for the Cisco ATA to contact the TFTP server (without using DHCP) that will contain the configuration file for the Cisco ATA.

Voice Configuration Menu

The main reasons to use the voice configuration menu are to establish IP connectivity for the Cisco ATA if a DHCP server is not being used in your network environment, and to reset the Cisco ATA to its factory values if necessary. You can also use the voice configuration menu if you need to configure a small number of parameters or if the web interface and TFTP configuration are not available.
