Automatically detecting and configuring phones
If you are using phones from the Gigaset IP PRO range, these can be configured by an
automatic network scan. This process also works for various ATA and analogue cards. A list
of supported models can be found at www.gigaset.com/pro.
¤
Click on Search now to start the scan. All devices available on the local network are
detected and are automatically configured, if they are not already configured.
The scan has a progress indicator and the Search now button changes to Cancel.
If any devices are located that are already configured, you must decide whether the con-
figuration for each one should be overwritten.
The Configured Devices section shows a list indicating all devices configured during the
scan.
Please note
Devices that are used as fax machines must be configured manually despite the auto-
matic configuration (see
Limiting the phone search
If you do not wish to search the complete network for phones, you can limit the IP address
space to be scanned.
¤
Click on Specify IP range to search to open the Subnet dialogue field.
Here, you can limit the address space to be searched by changing the start and end
IP address. The network is scanned for devices from the IP address in the Start field
(e.g., 192.168.2.120) to IP address in the End field (e.g., 192.168.2.180).
If your server has several IP addresses and/or network cards, you can select the subnet-
work you wish to scan via the Range dropdown menu.
