Chapter 5: Installing the SA-100
5.5
Setting the IP Address Manually
This section describes how to set the IP address on the SA-100 manually. ShoreTel
recommends that you use a static IP address for the SA-100. You can also use DHCP to
assign the unit an IP address. If you choose to use DHCP, you must configure the
DHCP server with address information for the SA-100 prior to turning on the unit.
You can use the instruction provided in this section to obtain the Ethernet address of
the unit.
NOTE The SA-100 is shipped from the factory configured to use the DHCP to set
IP address. That means that unless otherwise set, the first time the unit is
turned on with an Ethernet cable connecting it to the network the unit will
seek an IP address from the DHCP server on the network.
To configure the IP address manually, you need the following:
