40 Avaya one-X™ Deskphone Value Edition 1600 Series IP Telephones Administrator Guide Release 1.0
Note:
Note:
The DHCP standard states that when a DHCP lease expires, the device should
immediately cease using its assigned IP address. If the network has problems
and the only DHCP server is centralized, the server is not accessible to the given
telephone. In this case the telephone is not usable until the server can be
reached.
Avaya recommends, once assigned an IP address, the telephone continues
using that address after the DHCP lease expires, until a conflict with another
device is detected. As
Table 7: 1600 Series IP Telephone Customizable System
Parameters
indicates, the system parameter DHCPSTD allows an administrator
to specify that the telephone will either:
a). Comply with the DHCP standard by setting DHCPSTD to “1”, or
b). Continue to use its IP address after the DHCP lease expires by setting
DHCPSTD to “0.”
The latter case is the default. If the default is invoked, after the DHCP lease
expires the telephone sends an ARP Request for its own IP address every five
seconds.
The request continues either forever, or until the telephone receives an ARP
Reply. After receiving an ARP Reply, the telephone displays an error message,
sets its IP address to 0.0.0.0, and attempts to contact the DHCP server again.
