Basic Network Configuration

For basic functionality, DHCP must provide the following parameters:
• IP Address: IP Address for the phone.
• Subnet Mask (option #1): Subnet mask of the phone.
• Default Route (option #3 "Router"): IP Address of the default gateway which is used for
connections beyond the subnet.
• DNS IP Addresses (option #6 "Domain Server"): IP Addresses of the primary and sec-
ondary DNS servers.
If no DHCP server is present, see Section 3.3.3, "IP Address - Manual Configuration" for IP ad-
dress and subnet mask, and Section 3.3.4, "Default Route/Gateway" for default route.
2.3.3

Extended Network Configuration

To have constant access to other subnets, you can enter a total of two more network destina-
tions. For each further domain/subnet you wish to use, first the IP address for the destination,
and then that of the router must be given. The option's name and code are as follows:
• option #33 "Static Routing Table"
For manual configuration of specific/static routing see Section 3.3.5, "Specific IP Routing".
Also the DNS domain wherein the phone is located can be specified by DHCP.
The option's name and code are as follows:
• option #15 "Domain Name"
For manual configuration of the DNS domain name see Section 3.3.6.1, "DNS Domain Name".
2.3.4

VLAN Discovery

If the phone is to be located in a VLAN (Virtual LAN), a VLAN ID must be assigned. If the VLAN
shall be provided by DHCP, VLAN Discovery must be set to "DHCP" (see Section 3.2.2.1, "Au-
tomatic VLAN discovery (DHCP)"). The corresponding DHCP option is vendor-specific, thus a
specific procedure is necessary.
2.3.4.1

Using a Vendor Class

It is recommended to define a vendor class on the DHCP server, thus enabling server and
phone to exchange vendor-specific data exclusively. The data is disclosed from other clients.
The following steps are required for the configuration of the Windows DHCP server.
