2. In the Add IP Codec Setting dialog, specify Range to set a range of
dynamic IP address.
3. Enter the Start value as 0.0.0.1; for the End value, enter
255.255.255.254.
You cannot use the minimum and maximum values (0.0.0.0. and
255.255.255.255).
4. Click OK.
5. From the main menu, go to the VoIP Codec Configuration window
and change the codec setting of current selection of all servers and
codecs to G.711 uLaw, then click OK. (By default, server codec is set
to G.723.1.)
This will force all connections to be G.711 and allow remote users
access to a range of IP addresses, instead of the users having to contact
the administrator for the specific IP address.
