phones. The DHCP server must also be configured to provide the NCP
IP address through option 184. Or you can program IP settings into
each device using the dialpad. See the NBX Administrator's Guide for
DHCP information and for telephone local programming instructions.
It takes a few moments for the Auto Discover process and the
software download process to complete. The NCP initializes devices
one at a time. If you have connected many new devices to the system at
the same time, the Auto Discover process requires more time.
A fully initialized telephone displays its extension and the date and
time. If there are no extensions available, the Auto Discover process
fails, and the telephone's display panel continues to display the
telephone's MAC address.
If you are adding devices that do not have a display panel, such as
3100 Entry Telephones, connect the devices one at a time and then
refresh the Telephone Configuration > Telephones list after you
connect a device to see the extension assigned to that device.
Do not specify an Auto Discovery starting extension that begins with
zero (0) as that will cause the Auto Discover process to fail.
If you are installing a 3Com Attendant Console, connect it after you
have discovered all of the telephones. The Auto Discover Attendant
Consoles process maps all existing telephone extension to the
Attendant Console.
If you are adding licensed devices to the system, the devices will not
be discovered until you add the appropriate Group License to the
system. For more information on Group Licensing, see
Licenses" on page
After you finish the Auto Discover process for the initial configuration,
you can disable it so that the NCP does not continue to search for added
devices.
