IP Phone Administrator Tool
The tool
IP Phone Administrator
is used to monitor the DBC 42x 02 IP
phones in the network. This is useful in the following cases:
•
to find the IP address to the IP phones and especially to the phones
without a display.
•
to get an overview of all registered and not registered phones
•
to see the firmware version in both registered and not registered IP
phones
An alternative to
IP Phone Administrator
is to use the SNMP client in the
telephone, see section 7.13.2 SNMP agent on page 45.
The
IP Phone Administrator
is used in either of two ways depending on
the telephony system:
Table 1
Each phone is sending http messages to the IP Phone Administrator
server with data and events. The sent data are e.g. the MAC address,
the IP address, the hardware and firmware version and the extension
number. The events that can be sent are: the phone has started, the
phone is registered or not registered toward the PBX.
The
IP Phone Administrator
tool collects all the http messages from the
phones and has a Web GUI to present the data for the system adminis-
trator
It is possible to enable / disable the sending of these http messages from
the phone with a parameter in the configuration file, see the description
for
CONFIGURATION FILE FOR DBC 42X
.
The phones gets the IP address to the IP Phone Administrator server by
DNS SRV resource records or via the configuration file, see the descrip-
tion for
CONFIGURATION FILE FOR DBC 42X
.
Below is an example of a printout from IP Phone Administrator:
