Notification When Incorrect Network Settings Entered
If an Administrator enters incorrect network settings over the IP Phone UI or the Aastra Web UI, such as:
A 0.0.0.0 entered as values for the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway parameters,
IP Address and Gateway IP address parameter values entered exactly the same,
Gateway IP address and the IP address parameter values configured not on the same subnet,
the UI will immediately notify the Administrator with a specific message that an incorrect value was entered.
Basic Network Settings
If Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is enabled, the IP phone automatically configures all of the Network set-
tings. If the phone cannot populate the Network settings, or if DHCP is disabled, you can set the Network options manu-
ally.

Description
DHCP DHCP dhcp Enables or disables DHCP. Enabling DHCP populates the
required network information. The DHCP server serves the
network information that the IP phone requires. If the IP phone
is unable to get any required information, then you must enter
it manually. DHCP populates the following network informa-
tion:
IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, Domain Name System
(DNS) servers, TFTP, HTTP HTTPS, and FTP servers, and Timer
servers.
Note:
For DHCP to automatically populate the IP address or qualified
domain name for the TFTP server, your DHCP server must sup-
port Option 66. The IP phones also support Option 60 and 43.
For more information, see “DHCP” on page4-3.
IP Address IP Address ip IP address of the IP phone. To assign a static IP address, disable
DHCP.
For more information, see “Configuring Network Settings
Manually” on page4-18.
Subnet Mask Subnet Mask subnet mask Subnet mask defines the IP address range local to the IP
phone. To assign a static subnet mask, disable DHCP.
For more information, see “Configuring Network Settings
Manually” on page4-18.
Gateway Gateway default gateway The IP address of the network’s gateway or default router IP
address. To assign a static Gateway IP address, disable DHCP.
For more information, see “Configuring Network Settings
Manually” on page4-18.
Primary DNS Primary DNS dns1 Primary DNS server IP address. For any of the IP address set-
tings on the IP phone a domain name value can be entered
instead of an IP address. With the help of the DNS servers the
domain names for such parameters can then be resolved to
their corresponding IP addresses.
To assign static DNS addresses, disable DHCP.
Note:
If a host name is configured on the IP phone, you must also set
a DNS.
