server. The Hardware ID text box displays the current hardware address.
MAC addresses
The IP Softphone 2050 default IP address comes from your Ethernet hardware, as a Medium
Access Control (MAC) address. If several Ethernet interfaces are installed, then the IP Softphone
2050 chooses the first MAC address it detects and uses that address in all subsequent
re-connections.
Note: Some Virtual Private Network (VPN) clients hide their MAC
addresses. In this case, you must override the default value to prevent
problems communicating with the server.

To select a MAC address
1
Click Auto-Create. The Hardware ID text box displays the next address in a range of

After you click through all available MAC addresses, Auto-Create generates random hardware ID
numbers. Select one of these numbers if your Ethernet hardware address is not unique to the
server.
