38 Avaya one-X™ Deskphone Value Edition 1600 Series IP Telephones Administrator Guide Release 1.0
Avaya recommends that:
● A minimum of two DHCP servers be available for reliability.
● A DHCP server be available when the IP telephone reboots.
● A DHCP server be available at remote sites if WAN failures isolate IP telephones from the
central site DHCP server(s).
The file server provides the 1600 Series IP Telephone with a script file and, if appropriate, new
or updated application software. See Step 3: Telephone and File Server
on page 19 under
Telephone Initialization Process
. In addition, you can edit an associated settings file to
customize telephone parameters for your specific environment. For more information, see
