Connecting the PC with the telephone's Web configurator
Prerequisites:
u
A standard Web browser is installed on the PC e.g., Internet Explorer version 7.0
or higher, Firefox version 3.5 or higher or Apple Safari version 3.x.
u
The phone and PC are directly connected with each other via a router. The set-
tings of any existing firewall installed on your PC allow the PC and phone to
communicate with each other.
There are two ways of connecting your PC to the Web configurator of the phone:
u
Via the phone's IP address in the local network;
u
Via the Gigaset configuration service, if the phone and PC are connected to the
Internet
Establishing a connection via the phone's IP address
¤
Establish the telephone's current IP address on the handset:
You can see the phone's current IP address in the handset display by
briefly
pressing the registration/paging key on the base.
Your phone's IP address can change if you have activated dynamic IP address
assignment
¤
Launch the web browser on your PC.
¤
Enter
http://
and the telephone's current IP address (for example:
http://192.168.2.2) into the address field of the Web browser.
¤
Press the return key.
A connection is established to the phone's Web configurator.
Please note
u
Depending on your VoIP provider, it is possible that you will be unable to
change individual settings in the Web configurator.
u
The phone is
not
blocked while you select your settings in the Web configu-
rator. You can make calls with your phone or modify settings at the same
time.
u
While you are connected to the Web configurator, it is blocked to other users.
It cannot be accessed by more than one user at any time.
Warning
If one of the four parts of the IP address contains leading zeros (e.g., 002), these
zeros must not be entered in the Web browser address field. Otherwise, the
Web browser will not be able to establish a connection to the Web configurator.
Example:
the IP address 192.168.002.002 is displayed on the phone. 192.168.2.2
should be entered in the address field.
