Phone Network; Ipv4 And Ipv6 Network Settings - Alcatel-Lucent ALE M3 Administrator's Manual

2. Phone Network

The ALE Myriad Series phones operate on an Ethernet local area network (LAN) or wireless network.

2.1 IPv4 and IPv6 Network Settings

The ALE Myriad Series phones support IPv4 addressing mode and IPv6 addressing mode.
After connecting to the wired network, the phones can obtain the IPv4 or IPv6 network settings from a
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server if your network supports it. To make it easier to manage
IP settings, we recommend you use automated DHCP which can eliminate repetitive manual data entry.
You can also configure IPv4 or IPv6 network settings manually.
Note: The ALE Myriad Series phones comply with the DHCPv4 specifications documented in RFC 2131, and
DHCPv6 specifications documented in RFC 3315.
In DHCP mode, if the phone cannot get IP address, the IP address in status menu will be displayed as
"0.0.0.0" and prompt "network unavailable" message.
