After the phone connects to the network, the phone startup process begins, and the phone registers with
Third-Party Call Control system. To finish installing the phone, configure the network settings on the phone
depending on whether you enable or disable DHCP service.
If you used autoregistration, you need to update the specific configuration information for the phone such as
associating the phone with a user, changing the button table, or directory number.
