If file uploads are permitted, the boot server allows these local changes to be backed up automatically. Polycom recommends the boot server central provisioning model for installations involving more than a few phones. The investment required is minimal in terms of time and equipment, and the benefits are significant.
2.2.1.1 DHCP or Manual TCP/IP Setup Basic network settings can be derived from DHCP or entered manually using the phone’s LCD-based user interface. Polycom recommends using DHCP where possi- ble to eliminate repetitive manual data entry. The following table shows the manually entered networking parameters that may be...
