Network Requirements and Information
For the BaseSTATION and room PC, three (3) IP addresses are required; one (1) for BaseSTATION UC
conferencing, one (1) for BaseSTATION VoIP conferencing and one (1) for the in-room PC used with the UC
conferencing application. The courtesy network jack on the BaseSTATION Dock can be used by the room PC, or
any other network jack in the room that is on the same network as the BaseSTATION can be used.
Broken record
time:
It is very important to work with the IT professionals at the place of installation to get the IP addresses, the
required VoIP information (see the worksheet) and the network jack required to install and operate each system.
Accessing the BaseSTATION Web Pages
The BaseSTATION has an embedded web server used for set-up and configuration.
These internal webpages can be directly accessed by navigating to the URL with
standard browsers. The software defaults to DHCP and will attempt to dynamically
obtain an IP address when connected to a network, but it will fall back to the default
address of (169.254.1.1) if no DHCP server can be found. Notes for both DHCP and
Static configurations are provided below:
DHCP IP Set-up (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
Skip this section if Static IP is used. If the LAN is using a DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol) server, then
the IP address, gateway and routing information will automatically be assigned. The BaseSTATION will display the
IP address when the answer/send button is held down for 3 seconds (see page 15).
Static IP Set-up:
The static IP can be assigned either through the network or directly to a computer using a cross-over cable.
Depending on the age of the computer, you may not need a cross-over cable. Either way the steps are the same
for network or direct connection to a computer. The default address of the BaseSTATION again is 169.254.1.1 and
the Subnet mask is 255.255.0.0. Different computer OS types all have their own way of doing things (without
question), but they are essentially doing the same stuff, changing the IP address so the web pages of the device
are accessible.

Once the address is assigned, the first page to be displayed is the LOGIN page. This login is really an
administrator’s login. The default username is:
