3Com Telephone
Local User Interface
Menus
The firmware within each 3Com telephone includes a telephone
diagnostic and configuration utility called the Local User Interface (LUI).
The administrator has access to more telephone configurables through
LUI, which are needed for initial physical telephone configuration and to
test the telephone.
The LUI utility enables you to perform these tasks:
View telephone settings, both the active settings and the settings
stored in the telephone’s memory
Set telephone IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway
Specify IP address of the Network Call Processor (NCP)
Specify settings specific to a 3Com VCX Telephone System
