Network Parameters That Can Be Modified
Parameter
Description
Admin. VLAN Id
1
Unique identifier of the VLAN to which the phone is attached (for use
in switched networks that are not Cisco networks).
Alternate TFTP
Whether to use an alternate remote TFTP server rather than the local
one.
Valid values are Yes and No. If you set this parameter to Yes, you must
change the IP address in the TFTP server parameter to the address of
the alternate TFTP server. Default is No.
Default Router 1 to 5
2
IP address (1) of the default gateway used by the phone and (2 to 5) of
the gateways that the phone attempts to use as an alternate gateway if
the default gateway is unavailable.
DHCP Address Released
Whether the IP address of the phone can be released for reuse in the
network.
Valid values are Yes and No. When set to Yes, the phone sends a
DHCP release message to the DHCP server and goes into a release
state. The release state provides enough time to remove the phone
from the network before the phone attempts to acquire another IP
address from the DHCP server. When you move the phone to a new
network segment, first release the DHCP address.
DHCP Enabled
Whether the phone uses DHCP to configure network settings (IP
address, subnet mask, domain name, default router list, DNS server
list, and TFTP address). Valid values are Yes and No. Default is Yes.
To manually configure your IP settings, including the TFTP server’s
IP address, set this parameter to No. If
not
providing the TFTP
server’s IP address manually, set DHCP to Yes.
DNS Servers 1 to 5
2
IP address of the DNS server used by the phone to resolve names to
IP addresses. The phone attempts to use DNS servers 2 to 5 if DNS
server 1 is unavailable.
Domain Name
Name of the DNS domain in which the phone resides.
Erase Configuration
Whether to erase all of the locally defined network settings on the
phone and reset the values to the defaults.
Valid values are Yes and No. Yes reenables DHCP. For information on
erasing the local configuration, see the
“Setting and Restoring
Network Parameters” section on page 3-11
.
GARP Enabled
Enables or disables generation of the Gratuitous ARP packets from
the phone.
HTTP Proxy Address
IP address of the HTTP proxy server. You can use either a dotted IP
address or a DNS name (a record only).
HTTP Proxy Port
Port number of the outbound proxy port. Default is 80.
IP Address
2
IP address of the phone that is assigned by DHCP or that is locally
configured.
