Registration
When you add an IP Softphone 2050 to the network, depending on
configuration, the IP Softphone 2050 can connect to a predefined IP
address or can request an IP address from a DHCP server. The IP
Softphone 2050 then contacts the Connect Server, which instructs the IP
Softphone 2050 to display a message on its display screen requesting the
customer node number and TN.
After you enter this information, the IP Softphone 2050 contacts the
Node Master, which selects a TPS with sufficient capacity to register the
IP Softphone 2050. The IP Softphone 2050 contacts the chosen TPS
and, if the IP Softphone 2050 is valid, registers it with the system. The
registration information saves to the IP Softphone 2050.
