Voice Configuration Menu
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 3-15). These are the
parameters you need to configure for the CiscoATA 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 CiscoATA to contact the
TFTP server (without using DHCP) that will contain the configuration file for the CiscoATA.
Voice Configuration Menu
The main reasons to use the voice configuration menu are to establish IP connectivity for the CiscoATA
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.
Note Do not use the voice configuration menu to attempt to change any values that you configured by means
of the TFTP configuration file method. Whenever the Cisco ATA refreshes, it downloads its
ata<macaddress> configuration file or atadefault.cfg default configuration file from the TFTP server,
and the values in either of these files will overwrite the values of any corresponding parameters
configured with the voice configuration menu.
See Chapter5, “Parameters and Defaults,” for a complete list of parameters and their definitions. Also
see Table4-4 on page 4-12 for a n alphabetical listing of configurable features and references to their
corresponding parameters.
