The following options are available to configure the phone via DHCP:

already have this value).

— Option 66 Boot Server Host Name. This value represents the IP
address (or DNS name) of the FTP server for the phones. A full URL

• Recommended Options
— Option 2 Time offset. This option determines the phone’s time zone,
the value (in hexadecimal) is calculated in the number of seconds from
GMT. For example, 14,400 seconds would be +4 hours and converted
to its long hexadecimal version it would be 00003840. Use a negative
number to convert for time values west of GMT. Examples for US time
zones can be found below:
• Eastern Time (-5 GMT) = FFFFB9B0
• Central Time (-6 GMT) = FFFFABA0
