Description
Specifies the subnet mask of the network.
Specifies the gateway IP address list. The list can contain up to 127 total ASCII
characters. Separate more than one IP address with commas with no intervening
spaces.
Specifies the DNS server address list. The list can contain up to 127 total ASCII
characters. Separate more than one IP address with commas with no intervening
spaces.
The phone supports DNS and the dotted decimal addresses. The phone attempts to
resolve a non-ASCII-encoded dotted decimal IP address by checking the contents of
DHCP Option 6. At least one address in option 6 must be a valid, nonzero, dotted
decimal address, otherwise the DNS address fails.
Specifies the host name.
AVohhhhhh, where:
• AV stands for Avaya.
• o is one of the following values based on Object Unique Identifier (OUI) derived
from the first three octets of the phone MAC address:
- A if OUI is 00-04-0D
- B if OUI is 00-1B-4F
- E if OUI is 00-09-6E
- L if OUI is 00-60-1D
- T if the OUI is 00-07-3B
- X if the OUI is anything else
• hhhhhh are the ASCII characters for the hexadecimal representation of the last
three octets of the phone MAC address.
Specifies the domain name. The domain name is required to resolve DNS names into
IP addresses.
Configure this option if you use a DNS name for the HTTP server. Otherwise, you can
specify a domain as part of customizing the HTTP server.
This domain name is appended to the DNS addresses specified in option 6 before the
phone attempts to resolve the DNS address. The phone queries the DNS address in
the order they are specified in option 6. If there is no response from an address, the
phone queries the next DNS address.
As an alternative to administering DNS by DHCP, you can specify the DNS server and
domain name in the HTTP script file. If you use the script file, you must configure the
