Configure Network Settings
If DHCP is not configured, configure these network settings on your phone after you install it on the network:
• IP address
• IP subnet information
• IPv6 addresses
• TFTP server IP address
If necessary, you may also configure the domain name and the DNS server settings.
The Ethernet Setup menu provides options for viewing and changing various network settings. The following
table describes these options and, where applicable, explains how to change them.
