Pre-Installation Checklist for Static Addressing

Before performing static programming of address information, verify that all the requirements
listed in the Verify These Network Requirements
met. You do not have to consider item 4 on page 12, as it refers to the DHCP server. In addition,
you must have the values for the following parameters. Failure to do so can cause data entry
errors that prevent the telephone from working. Such errors can also have a negative impact on
your network. Print copies of this checklist for each subnet.
