Forum IPhone 512 / Forum IPhone 545 DHCP
The address and device configuration is transferred from the
Forum 525/526 communications system to the
Forum IPhone 512 / Forum IPhone 545 SIP phone using the DHCP
protocol. You can configure the necessary address settings while
adding a device entry under

You can enter the MAC address of the Forum IPhone 512 /
Forum IPhone 545 manually. Depending on the operation
mode of the DHCP server, you can also enter the IP address
manually. For this, change the
Status
setting on the
Network
:
DHCP
page to “Static address assignment”.
Optionally, you can use the dynamic IP address assignment
from the DHCP server. For this, change the
Status
setting on
the
Network
:
DHCP
page to “Dynamic address assignment”
and also change the
Devices
selection to the “All” setting or to
the “with configured MAC only” setting.

By using the “Easy Configuration / Hot-Desking” feature you
can add a device entry without entering a MAC address and
without entering an IP address. An unregistered
Forum IPhone 512 / Forum IPhone 545 will show a login page
after startup. A user can enter the desired call number and the
matching user PIN which will establish the association of the
user account to the device entry. For this, change the
Status
setting on the
Network
:
DHCP
page to “Dynamic address
assignment” and also change the
Devices
selection to the
“All” setting or to the “with configured MAC only and all SIP
system devices” setting.
If you want to use both features concurrently, change the
Status
setting on the
Network
:
DHCP
page to “Dynamic and static
address assignment”.
If you operate another DHCP server in your network, the
Forum IPhone 512 / Forum IPhone 545 can distinguish the differ-
ent DHCP answers and will normally take its configuration data
from the Forum 525/526 communications system nevertheless. In
a conflict situation, you may need to prevent the configuration of
the Forum IPhone 512 / Forum IPhone 545 SIP phone by a for-
eign DHCP server. For example, add an exception rule for all MAC
addresses starting with 00:08:5D.
