Manual method — You can use the NBX NetSet utility to disable
Auto Discovery and configure telephones manually. However, if you
have many telephones to configure, manual configuration can be a
tedious and error-prone process.
For either method, you need to connect the telephone to the network. If
you use Auto Discovery, enable the Auto Discover Telephones check box
before you connect the telephone. If you add a telephone manually, you
can connect the telephone before or after you use the NBX NetSet utility
to add it.
Connecting the Telephone
Instructions for connecting the telephone to power and the network
depend on your power source and the type of telephone. See Chapter 3
in the
NBX Installation Guide or the telephone packing sheet for
telephone connection information.
