PRINCIPLES
Section 4.11, “Working with DHCP” in the UNITe IP TVSe Server Sys-
tem Manual, contains a detailed explanation of the principles of con-
figuration for DHCP support.
The configuration options for the Avanti 3015ip telephone are orga-
nized in three menus: the IP Menu, the TVS Menu and the User
Menu. Following is a description of these menus and the navigation
possibilities between them.
If a DHCP Server is enabled in the system, it may be configured in
one of two modes:
• A
ddressing only mode:
The DHCP server provides an IP address
for the IP extension, as well as the subnet and router addresses,
but the FTP Server address needs to be entered manually.
•
Full info mode
:
The DHCP server provides IP addresses and addi-
tional pre-defined data, such as the FTP Server address.
The Avanti 3015ip Setup procedure is performed by means of three
menus:

DETECTION
If you enter a value greater than 255 in one of the fields of an IP
address, the Avanti 3015ip Setup software will automatically detect it
and reject your input.
The network fields of the Phone IP address and Router IP address
must be the same, as yielded by a logical AND operation between
each of these addresses and the Subnet Mask. Otherwise, at the end
of the IP Menu the display will show:
IP CONFIG. ERROR
<BACK> <EXIT>
Pressing
{EXIT}
forces the Setup program to store the address you
entered. If you press
{BACK}
, the menu is displayed again from the
beginning, so that you can correct the wrong entry.

Softkeys
When required to enter a value manually, remember
that the leftmost softkey under the display accepts
the present value and moves on to the next option,
while the middle softkey returns you to the previous
screen.
