1.1.3 Basic Network Setup

1.1 Setup

1.1.1 Factory Defaults

Many of the settings for this unit have been configured before the unit ships.
Where possible, these settings are configured with the optimum or most common values for the setting. For
example, the port number of the SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) server is set to "5060".
However, many of the settings, such as the address of the SIP server or the phone number, have not been
pre-configured, and they must be modified depending on the usage environment. If the port number of the SIP
server is not "5060", the value of this setting must be changed.
This unit thus will not function properly using only the factory default settings. The settings for each feature
must be configured according to the environment in which the unit is used.

1.1.2 Language Selection for the Unit

You can change the language used on the LCD. Because the language settings for the LCD of the base unit
and handsets are not synchronized, you must set the languages individually for the base unit and each handset.
In addition, various settings can be configured by using the Web user interface on a PC connected on the same
network (® see Section 3 Web User Interface Programming). You can select the language for the Web
user interface. You must set the language setting for the Web user interface separately from that of the base
unit and handsets.
The available languages may differ depending on the country/area of use.
Note
•
To select the display language for the base unit or handsets, refer to the User Guide on the Panasonic
Web site (® see Introduction).
•
To select the display language for the Web user interface, see 3.5.1 Web Language.
1.1.3 Basic Network Setup
This section describes the basic network settings that you must configure before you can use the unit on your
network.
You must configure the following network settings:
•
TCP/IP settings (DHCP [Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol] or static IP address assignment)
•
DNS server settings
TCP/IP Settings (DHCP or Static IP Address Assignment)
A unique IP address must be assigned to the unit so that it can communicate on the network. How you assign
an IP address depends on your network environment. This unit supports the following 2 methods for assigning
an IP address:
Obtaining an IP Address Automatically from a DHCP Server
You can configure the unit to automatically obtain its IP address when it starts up from a DHCP server running
on your network. With this method, the system can efficiently manage a limited number of IP addresses. Note
that the IP address assigned to the unit may vary every time the unit is started up.
For details about the DHCP server, consult your network administrator.
