Chapter 1 An Overview of the Cisco Unified IP Phones
Overview of Configuring and Installing Cisco Unified IP Phones
6. If you are configuring the network settings on the phone for an
IPv6 network, you can set up an IP address for the phone by
either using DHCPv6 or by manually entering an IP address.
Using DHCPv6—To enable DHCPv6 and allow the DHCPv6
server to automatically assign an IP address to the Cisco Unified
IP Phone and direct the phone to a TFTP server, choose Settings
> Network Configuration> IPv6 Configuration and configure
the following:
• To enable DHCPv6, set DHCPv6 to Ye s. DHCPv6 is
enabled by default.
• To use an alternate TFTP server, set IPv6 Alternate TFTP
Server to Yes , and enter the IP address for IPv6 TFTP Server
1.
Note Consult with the network administrator if you need to
assign an alternate TFTP server instead of using the
TFTP server assigned by DHCP.
Without DHCP—You must configure the IP address, subnet
mask and TFTP server locally on the phone, choose Settings >
Network Configuration> IPv6 Configuration:
To disable DHCP and manually set an IP address:
a. To disable DHCPv6, set DHCPv6 to No.
b. Enter the static IP address for phone.
c. Enter the IPv6 prefix length.
d. Set IPv6 Alternate TFTP Server to Yes , and enter IP address
for IPv6 TFTP Server 1.
You must also enter the domain name where the phone resides by
Choosing Settings > Network Configuration.
Note The Cisco Unified IP Phones support having both IPv4
and an IPv6 address concurrently. You can configure
Cisco Unified Communications Manager to support IPv4
devices only, IPv6 devices only, or to support both IPv4
and IPv6 devices concurrently.
