Using Static IP Addressing

If your Internet service provider’s Encapsulation setting is either 1483 Bridged or 1483 Routed, the X4 can be set for either a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) address (also known as a dynamic IP address) or for a static IP address.

Because most Internet service providers use DHCP, the X4 is set for dynamic IP addressing by default.

There is typically an extra charge for a static IP address, and you usually have to make a special request to get one.

Important!

If you do not know what static IP addressing is or why you would use it, you most likely do not need to change the default setting. Only advanced users who specifically want to use static IP addressing and/or those users whose IP provider specifically instructed them to use static IP addressing should change this setting.

1 Click the Advanced Setup icon at the top of any page in the Zoom Configuration Manager to open the Advanced Setup page.
