Setting the phone's IP address in LAN
The base station requires an IP address in order to be "recognized" by the LAN
(the router).
The IP address can be assigned to the base station automatically (by the router)
or manually.
u If performed dynamically, the router's DHCP server automatically assigns
the base station an IP address. The base station's IP address can be changed
according to router settings.
u If performed manually/statically, you assign the base station a static IP
address. This may be necessary depending on your network configuration.
ú For information on making the local network settings on the Web configurator,
£ Page 103.
