The process will entail the following steps:

2. Enter a static IP address.
3. Enter a netmask address.
4. Reset the MAX 420.
5. Log in to the MAX Web Manager.
6. Set the required configuration parameters in the MAX Web Manager.
Disabling DHCP in the MAX 420
Since the Net2Phone MAX 420 is shipped with DHCP enabled, you need to
disable DHCP to use static IP addresses. To disable DHCP, proceed as follows:
1. Lift the telephone handset and dial
***
5
(
***5
).
The voice prompt
announces, “DHCP is now disabled. Please press pound.”
2. Press the pound key (
#
).
3. Hang up the telephone.
DHCP is now disabled.
Entering a static IP address
To enter a static IP address:
1. Lift the telephone handset and dial
***
2
(
***2
).
The voice prompt
responds, “Please enter your IP address.”
2. Press the IP address numbers you wish to enter on the telephone keypad.
Use the star key (
*
) to replace the periods in the address, and end with a
pound sign (
#
).
For example, if you want to enter the IP address “192.168.172.19,” you
would enter
192*168*172*19#
from your telephone keypad.
The voice
prompt responds, “Your IP address is…” and repeats the address you
entered.
3. If the new address is correct, simply hang up the telephone. If the new
address is incorrect, hang up the telephone and repeat from step 1, above.
Entering a netmask address
To enter a netmask address:
1. Lift the handset and dial
***3
(the netmask parameter code).
The voice
prompt responds, “Please enter your netmask.”
2
.
Enter the netmask address from the telephone keypad using the same
format that you used to enter the IP address (e.g., 255.255.255.0
#
).
3. Reset the Net2Phone MAX 420 to activate the changes. To do this, power-
off the unit, wait 10 seconds, and turn it on again.
If your LAN is using static addresses, you can now finish configuring your system
using the MAX Web Manager. Proceed to Page 8, “Logging In to the MAX Web
Manager.”
