DHCP

This section provides information on possible DHCP servers and generic information on
administering a DHCP server.

Choosing a DHCP Configuration

A discussion on how to best set up your network to work with the 4600 Series IP Telephones is
beyond the scope of this document. See Network Assessment on page 2-5. This document
concentrates on the simplest case of the single LAN segment. Information provided here can be
extrapolated for more complex LAN configurations.
WARNING:
Before you start, it is important that you understand your current network configuration. An
improper installation can cause network failures or reduce the reliability and performance of
your network.

Two DHCP software alternatives are common to Windows operating systems:
Windows NT 4.0 DHCP Server
Windows 2000 DHCP Server
