D-Link VTA User Manual
Chapter 3 - Configuration
Find IP Address
The VTA telephone adapter has a built-in configuration utility. To access this utility, you need to
obtain the P address of the VTA. By default, the VTA telephone adapter automatically obtains an P
address from your DHCP enabled router or DHCP server.
To find the P address, log into your router or DHCP server and locate the DHCP table (reference
the User Manual for your router or DHCP server as necessary). The table will display all of your
network clients (using DHCP) that are connected. Search for the Vonage VTA’s MAC address in the
table and the P address will be listed next to it. The MAC address is on the bottom of the Vonage
VTA device.
f your router has DHCP disabled, you will need to temporarily enable it to obtain an P address for
the VTA telephone adapter. Once you obtain the P address, log in to the VTA and configure it for
a static P address as detailed in the Static P Address section. Then you may once again disable
DHCP on your router.
Note: The terms
MAC Address
and
MAC ID
are used interchangeably.
