Confi guration & Specifi cations

Network Confi guration

Once the ShoreGear voice switch is installed and powered on, it must be confi gured 
for network operations. A voice switch gets a network confi guration by assignment 
from a DHCP or BOOTP server, or directly from an administrator console (see 
procedure below).

NOTE

For more information on setting up a switch for automatic confi guration by a 

DHCP or BOOTP server, see the 

ShoreTel Planning and Installation Guide

.
