Configuring settings for the local network
All of the settings for connecting your phone to the local network must be correct to enable
communication with other devices in the network and phone calls via the Internet.
Your phone can be connected to the local network using an Ethernet cable. When you first set
up the phone, the device will automatically try to connect to the local network (
£
page 21 ).
This will work, if:
– You have connected the device to the network using an Ethernet cable (
£
page 14 )
– The gateway automatically assigns network IP addresses using DHCP
– The network uses IP protocol version 4 (IPv4).
The phone is then automatically assigned an IP address and is connected to the local network.
You can then continue configuring your phone via the Web configurator at a PC (
£
page 64 ).
If the network connection is not established automatically, you will initially not be able to access
the Web configurator. If this is the case, you will have to establish the network connection man-
ually via the display menu:
u
If your device is assigned a static IP address, your network administrator must tell you the IP
address of your device. You then assign this address to your phone (
£
page 59 ).
u
If your network uses IPv6, you have to set your phone to Internet protocol version 6 (IPv6)
(
£
page 61 ). The connection is established if the address is assigned automatically. If a static
IP address should be assigned to your phone, your network administrator must inform you
of this. You then assign this to your phone.
Whether you configure the network settings when you initially set up the phone (
£
page 21 )
or you start configuration via the display menu – the settings are the same.
Note
The device is delivered with configuration settings that are optimally set for operating the
device with an elmeg hybird phone system. Usually, the settings need not to be changed.
Warning
The connection may be interrupted if you change the configuration for a functioning net-
work connection. You will then
no longer be able to access the local network or the Web
configurator and you will no longer be able to make calls via the Internet .
