Dhcp Server Configuration; Setting Up A Dhcp Server; Configuration Through Lldp - Avaya J100 Series Installing And Administering

DHCP server configuration

You can configure the DHCP server to:
• Dynamically assign IP addresses to Avaya J100 Series IP Phones.
• Provision phone and site-specific configuration parameters through various DHCP options.
In a Device Enrollment Services (DES) environment, the DHCP server is primarily used to assign
IP addresses to the phones. The phones receives the file server address from the DES server.

Setting up a DHCP server
About this task
Use this procedure to set up a third-party DHCP server.
Before you begin
Contact your server software vendor to obtain server software installation and configuration
instructions.
Procedure
1. Install the DHCP server software according to the software vendor's instructions.
2. Create a DHCP scope to define the range of IP addresses for the phones.
3. Configure the required DHCP options.
The DHCP site-specific option that you configure must match the Site Specific Option

Configuration through LLDP

Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is an open standards, layer 2 protocol that IP phones use to
advertise their identity and capabilities and to receive administration from Ethernet switches. LAN
equipment can use LLDP to manage power and administer VLANs, DSCP, and 802.1p priority
fields.
The transmission and reception of LLDP is specified in IEEE 802.1AB-2005. The Avaya J100
Series IP Phones use Type-Length-Value (TLV) elements specified in IEEE 802.1AB-2005, TIA
TR-41 Committee - Media Endpoint Discovery (LLDP-MED, ANSI/TIA-1057), and Proprietary
elements. LLDP Data Units (LLDPDUs) are sent to the LLDP Multicast MAC address.
