Setting up Your System

 

 

 

 

Note

 

 

 

 

A parameter value of “???” indicates that the parameter has not yet been set and

 

 

saved in the phone’s configuration. Any such parameter should have its value set

 

 

before continuing.

 

 

 

The EM Power parameter is only available on SoundPoint IP 601 and 650 phones.

Note

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To switch the text entry mode on the SoundPoint IP 330/320, press the #. You may

 

 

want to use URL or IP address modes when entering server addresses.

 

 

 

 

 

 

DHCP Menu

 

 

 

The DHCP menu is accessible only when the DHCP client is enabled. The

 

 

following DHCP configuration parameters can be modified on the DHCP

 

 

menu:

Name

Values

Description

Timeout

1 through 600

Number of seconds the phone waits for secondary DHCP Offer

 

 

 

messages before selecting an offer.

 

 

 

Boot Server

0=Option 66

The phone will look for option number 66 (string type) in the

 

 

 

response received from the DHCP server. The DHCP server

 

 

 

should send address information in option 66 that matches one

 

 

 

of the formats described for Server Address in the next

 

 

 

section, Server Menu.

 

 

 

If the DHCP server sends nothing, the following scenarios are

 

 

 

possible:

 

 

 

If a boot server value is stored in flash memory and the

 

 

 

value is not “0.0.0.0”, then the value stored in flash is used.

 

 

 

Otherwise the phone sends out a DHCP INFORM query.

 

 

 

- If a single alternate DHCP server responds, this is

 

 

 

functionally equivalent to the scenario where the primary

 

 

 

DHCP server responds with a valid boot server value.

 

 

 

- If no alternate DHCP server responds, the INFORM query

 

 

 

process will retry and eventually time out.
