Telephones
4.3.1 Assigning the IP Addressing Information
The IP address of an IP telephone, the subnet mask address, the default gateway address, and the IP address
of the IPCMPR card (PBX IP address) must be assigned to the IP telephone before it can be used on the
network. These IP addressing information can be assigned in the following ways;
Note
For details for the KX-NT400, refer to the Operating Instructions of the KX-NT400.
For IP-PTs
1.
Using a DHCP server when the IP-PT is on the same LAN with the PBX
The DHCP server automatically assigns the IP address of the IP-PT, the subnet mask address, and the
default gateway address to the IP-PT.
The PBX IP address can also be assigned automatically to the IP-PT in process of being registered to the
PBX. For details about registering the IP-PT, refer to "4.3.2 Registering IP Telephones".
2.
Using a DHCP server when the IP-PT is on the remote office LAN
While the DHCP server automatically assigns the IP address of the IP-PT, the subnet mask address, and
the default gateway address to the IP-PT, only the PBX IP address must be assigned manually.
Follow the procedure below to assign the PBX IP address.
