Installation

Programming the Controller DHCP Server Settings (for Release 7.0 and

later)

For additional information on programming DHCP settings for the 3300

ICP, refer to the System Administration Tool Online Help.

To use an external DHCP Server, do not enable the internal DHCP server

and refer to “Configuring External DHCP Settings for E2T” on page 307 for

instructions.

1. On the Maintenance PC, access the System Administration Tool (see

"Launching the Programming Tools" on page 8).

2. In the All forms (alphabetical) list, click DHCP Subnet form, enter

the subnet name, IP address and bit mask.

3. In the DHCP Static IP form, enter a static IP address for the E2T using

the information on page 301 (skip this step for the MX and 100-user

controllers). Assign IP addresses to specific devices by using the MAC

address of the device. Assign a static IP Address to any IP Console in

a cluster.

4. In the DHCP IP Address Range form, program the scope using the

information on page 301.

Note: DHCP options 128-133 used to configure Mitel IP endpoints have

been reclassified as public options by the Internet Engineering Task Force

(see RFC 2133 and RFC 3925). To comply with the change, Mitel

recommends using either option 43 or 125, depending on the server's

ability to support them and on administrator preference. (The embedded

server supports both options with 125 as the factory-programmed default.)

The old options can still be used to provide backward compatibility with

IP sets that have yet to be upgraded with firmware that supports the new

options. After the upgrade, the old options may be removed to prevent

future conflicts with standard use or other vendors' use of these options.

Note: Ensure that all LLDP-compliant telephones are upgraded to

firmware version 2.0.0.18 or later before you use LLDP on your network

for VLAN Discovery.

Note: LLDP-MED non-compliant telephones cannot use LLDP for VLAN

discovery. They must use DHCP VLAN discovery. Non-compliant sets are:

5001, 5005, 5010, 5020 IP Phones, 5140 IP Appliance, 5201, 5205, 5207,

5215 (single mode), 5220 (single mode), 5230 IP Phones, 5240 IP

Appliance, 5485 IP Pager, and 5550 IP Console keypad.

Tip: You may need to change the IP address of your PC to match your

customers network.
