Static Addressing Installation
Issue 4 February 2010 35
Static Addressing Installation
The usual way to assign IP addresses to IP telephones is the automatic method described in
Dynamic Addressing Process
on page 24. There might be times, however, when manual
assignment of IP addresses is desired.
!
CAUTION:
CAUTION: Static addressing is necessary when a DHCP server is unavailable.
Because of the increased opportunities for text entry errors associated with static
addressing, we very strongly recommend that a DHCP server be installed and
static addressing avoided.
Use the following procedure to invoke manual address information programming.
1. Start manual address programming by performing one of the following steps:
a. During normal DHCP processing, press the * key while “* to program“ displays during
the DHCP process.
or
b. While the telephone is on-hook and idle, press the following sequence of keys on the
faceplate of the telephone:
Mute 2 3 3 7 # (Mute A D D R #)
Note:
Note: Press the Mute button momentarily. Do not press this button while pressing other
keys/buttons.
The telephone displays:
where nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn is the current IP address system value of the telephone.
2. Enter the telephone’s IP address followed by the # button.
The telephone displays:
where nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn is the current system value of the media server/gatekeeper IP
address.
Phone=nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn

CallSv=nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
