Table 4-2 describes these options and, where applicable, explains how to change them.
For information about how to access the Network Configuration menu, see the “Displaying a 
Configuration Menu” section on page 4-2.
Note The phone also has a Network Configuration menu that you access directly from the Settings menu. For 
information about the options on that menu, see the 
“Network Configuration Menu” section on 
page 4-24.
