IP settings
IP address type
Select
Dynamic
, if your device receives the IP address via a DHCP server.
Select
Static
, if your want to assign a fixed IP address to the device.
If the
Dynamic
setting is selected, all further settings are automatically configured. They are displayed and cannot
be changed.
If you have selected
Static
as the address type, you must create the following settings.
IP address
Enter an IP address for your device. This IP address allows your device to be reached by other subscribers in
your local network.
The IP address comprises four individual groups of numbers with decimal values from 0 to 255 that are separated
by a dot, e.g., 192.168.2.1.
The IP address must be included in the address block used by the router/gateway for the local network. The valid
address block is defined by the IP address for the router/gateway and the
Subnet mask
.
Subnet mask
The Subnet mask specifies how many parts of an IP address the network prefix must comprise. For example,
255.255.255.0 means that the first three parts of an IP address must be the same for all devices in the network,
while the last part is specific to each device. In subnet mask 255.255.0.0, only the first two parts are reserved for
the network prefix.
Enter the subnet mask that is used by your network.
Standard gateway
The Standard gateway is generally the router/gateway of the local network. Your Integrator/DECT manager device
requires this information to be able to access the Internet.
Enter the local (private) IP address for the standard gateway through which the local network is connected to
the Internet (e.g., 192.168.2.1).
Preferred DNS
DNS (Domain Name System) allows you to assign public IP addresses to symbolic names. The DNS server is
required to convert the DNS name into the IP address when a connection is being established to a server.
Enter the IP address for the preferred DNS server. You can specify the IP address for your router/gateway here.
This forwards address requests from the Integrator/DECT manager to its DNS server. There is no default setting
for a DNS server.
Alternate DNS
Enter the IP address for the alternate DNS server that should be used in situations where the preferred DNS
server cannot be reached.
The IP address must be unique across the network, which means that it must not be used by another
device connected to the router/gateway.
The fixed IP address must not belong to the address block that is reserved for the DHCP server for
the router/gateway.
Check the settings on the router or ask your network administrator.
