Changing IP address information
About this task
To assign IP addresses to IP phones, use the automatic method described in
Powering-up
and resetting the phone (Dynamic Addressing Process) on page 27. There might be times,
however, when manual assignment of IP addresses is required.
Caution:
Static addressing is necessary when a DHCP server is unavailable. But static addressing
has room for text entry errors. So Avaya recommends that you install a DHCP server and
do not use static addressing.
Important:
IPv6 operation is limited to a specific customer set and is not for general use.
Note:
When updating Local Craft procedures from a touch screen phone, touching the line you
want to change or the applicable softkey produces the same result as selecting a line and
pressing the applicable softkey on a non-touch screen IP phone.
Use the following procedure to invoke manual address information programming.
Procedure
1. Select ADDR from the Craft Procedures screen. The next screen displays the
following fields with the prompt Select address to change.
