Required Network Information
Issue 1 June 2010 23
DHCP Server
Avaya recommends that a DHCP server and application be installed and that static addressing
be avoided. Install the DHCP server and application as described in DHCP and File Servers
on
page 47.
HTTP/HTTPS Server
Administer the HTTP or HTTPS file server and application as described in HTTP Generic
Setup on page 60.
Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) Server
SIP IP deskphones require SNTP server support to set the time and date, used in system log
time stamps and other time/date functions. The SNTP server is typically needed by one or more
servers within the enterprise. Administration of the SNTP server is beyond the scope of this
document.
Required Network Information
Before you administer DHCP and HTTP/HTTPS, as applicable, complete the information in
Table 3
. If you have more than one router, HTTP/TLS server and subnetwork mask in your
configuration, complete Table 3
for each DHCP server.
The 1603SW-I SIP IP Deskphones support specifying a list of IP Addresses for a gateway/
router and the HTTP/HTTPS server. Each list can contain up to 255 total ASCII characters, with
IP Addresses separated by commas with no intervening spaces. Depending on the specific
DHCP application, only 127 characters might be supported.
When specifying IP Addresses for the file server, use either dotted decimal format
(“xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx”), DNS names, or FQDN. If you use DNS, the system value DOMAIN is
appended to the IP Addresses you specify. If DOMAIN is null, the DNS names must be fully
qualified, in accordance with IETF RFCs 1034 and 1035. For more information about DNS, see
DHCP Generic Setup
on page 50 and DNS Addressing on page 88.
Table 3: Required Network Information Before Installation - Per DHCP Server
1. Gateway (router) IP Address(es)
2. HTTP server IP Address(es)
3. Subnetwork mask
4. HTTP server file path (HTTPDIR)
