is configured properly.
For more information, see the
Phone Startup Verification, on page 34
.
Step 4
If you are configuring the network settings on the phone, you can set up an IP address for the phone by either
using DHCP or manually entering an IP address.
•
Using DHCP - Verify that DHCP is enabled. You can set an alternate TFTP by entering the IP address
for the TFTP.
Consult with the network administrator to determine whether you need to assign an alternative
TFTP server instead of using the TFTP server assigned by DHCP.
Note
•
Without DHCP - Verify that DHCP is disabled. You must then configure the IP address, subnet mask,
TFTP server, and default router locally.
For more information, see the
Network Settings Without DHCP, on page 34
and
Configuration Menus, on
page 35
.
Step 5
Set up security on the phone. This step provides protection against data tampering threats and identity theft
of phones.
For more information, see the
Security Configuration Menu, on page 44
