Installation
This chapter describes local installation and remote installation of the
IP 710 phone.
Important Notes for Plug and Play:
The plug and play feature enables the IP 710 phone to automatically
discover the AltiServ IP address.
• To use the plug and play feature, the user’s IP phone must be on the
LAN with AltiServ.
• There can be only one AltiServ on the LAN.
• An instance of AltiGen GateKeeper needs to be running on the LAN
and configured to point to the AltiWare system.
• GateKeeper Auto Discovery uses broadcast UDP packets, which work
in the LAN or VPN environment, but not through the public IP
network.
• The DHCP server must be up and running.
Local Installation
1. Gather network settings information (this information will be needed
to configure the IP 710):
• AltiWare server IP address
If you are not using GateKeeper Auto Discovery – needed for plug
and play – you will have to manually configure the AltiServ IP
address on your IP phones.
• Is DHCP used?
If DHCP is not used, obtain the IP 710 phone’s IP address from the
system administrator.
• Firewall information
See “Firewall Considerations” on page 42, if a firewall is being
used in the AltiWare environment.
