correct setting from the DHCP server. The DHCP setting is only valid when the IP address is also acquired using DHCP.
WINS servers: These setting are used for Windows Internet Name Services. Consult your system administrator for the correct settings. These can also be set to DHCP. This will cause the DHCP client in the gateway to attempt to automatically get the correct setting from the DHCP server. The DHCP setting is only valid when the IP address is also acquired DHCP.
When the name services are set up correctly, the SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway can translate hostnames to IP addresses. Using Telnet, it is also possible to access the SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateways using their hostname instead of the IP address.
Logging and Log server: Logging can be set to Syslog or NONE. The log server is the IP address or hostname of the Syslog server on the network. The gateway will output syslog format diagnostic messages. This is usually not needed.
SNTP: The SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) server provides a time stamp for syslog messages. See the Configuration and Administration document for the SpectraLink Wireless Telephone for detailed information about syslog messages. If syslog is being used, then SNTP server should be set to the hostname or IP address of an SNTP server.
GMT Offset: Difference in hours from Greenwich Mean Time, used for time stamping by SNTP. There is no automatic adjustment for Daylight Savings Time. Enter
SNMP: Simple Network Management Protocol: Enter the IP address of the SNMP server to allow alarms and other simple events to be sent from the SpectraLink 8000 Gateway to the SNMP server. More specific configuration information is not sent.
IGMP: Internet Group Management Protocol: Yes enables, No disables. This is used for managing multicast traffic. It should typically be set to Yes.
Maintenance Lock: The system automatically sets this option to Yes after certain maintenance activities that require reset. These are indicated in this list with an arrow bullet. Maintenance Lock prevents any new calls from starting. Note that the administrator cannot change this option. It is automatically set by the system. Reset the system at exit to clear Maintenance Lock.
