3 Configuring the MP-11x
The MP-11x application software already resides in the device’s flash memory when it is supplied
(with factory default parameters). MP-11x devices also include an Embedded (integrally stored)
Web Server.
Section
3.1 below describes how to assign an IP address to the MP-11x, while Section 3.4 on
page 17 describes how to set up the MP-11x with basic parameters using a standard Web
browser (such as Microsoft
TM
Internet Explorer).
Note: Section 3.1 applies equally to MGCP, H.323 and SIP.
3.1 Assigning the MP-11x IP Address
To assign an IP address to the MP-11x use one of the following methods:
• HTTP using a Web browser (refer to Section
3.1.1 below).
• BootP (refer to Section
3.1.2 on page 14).
• DHCP (refer to the product’s User’s Manual).
• The embedded Command Line Interface (CLI) accessed via Telnet or RS-232 (refer to Step
3.1.3 on page 15).
The default networking parameters are show in Table
3-1.
Use the ‘Reset’ button at any time to restore the MP-11x networking parameters to their factory
default values (refer to Section
3.2 on page 16).
Table
3-1: MP-11x Default Networking Parameters
Parameter Default Value
IP Address 10.1.10.10
Subnet Mask 255.255.0.0
Default Gateway IP Address 0.0.0.0
3.1.1 Assigning an IP Address Using HTTP
¾ To assign an IP address using HTTP, take these 8 steps:
1. Disconnect the MP-11x from the network and reconnect it to your PC using one of the
following two methods:
¾ Use a standard Ethernet cable to connect the network interface on your PC to a port on
a network hub / switch. Use a second standard Ethernet cable to connect the MP-11x to
another port on the same network hub / switch.
¾ Use a standard Ethernet cable to directly connect the network interface on your PC to
the MP-11x.
2. Change your PC’s IP address and subnet mask to correspond with the MP-11x factory
default IP address and subnet mask, shown in Table
3-1. For details on changing the IP
address and subnet mask of your PC, refer to Windows™ Online Help (Start>Help).
3. Access the MP-11x Embedded Web Server (refer to Section
3.3 on page 17).
4. In the ‘Quick Setup’ screen, set the MP-11x ‘IP Address’, ‘Subnet Mask’ and ‘Default
Gateway IP Address’ fields under ‘IP Configuration’ to correspond with your network IP
