Configuring IP
(When not set by a provisioning system)
On the Touch controller, you can select the IP settings for the
upcoming calls. If you wish to change the IP settings from the
default dual stack setting to either IPv4 or IPv6, you can do that
on the web interface.
The system’s IP configuration is by default set to dual stack.
This means that the network interface can operate on both IP
versions, and has both an IPv4 and an IPv6 address at the same
time. The IP parameters can be assigned automatically by the
network, or you can set everything manually.
If you want to set the parameters manually, please contact
your network administrator to obtain the required parameters.
If your system is provisioned automatically, these IP settings
may be overridden by the provisioning system.
To go back to default IP settings tap the user name in the upper
left corner and tap Settings > Administrator > IP & VLAN and
Default.
If an IPv4 or IPv6 address is already assigned to the system, you
will find it in the NETWORK section on the System Information
page: Tap the user name in the upper left corner and tap
Settings > System Information.
To set or change the IPv4 settings
1. Choose IP version
Tap the user name in the upper left corner and tap Settings
> Administrator > IP & VLAN. Then tap Advanced Settings.
Check the IPv4 box, if it has not been checked.
2. Choose automatic or manual IP assignment
Tap the arrow ( ∨ ) beside IPv4. Tap DHCP in the IP
Assignment section if you want automatic IP assignment;
or Static if you want to set the IP addresses manually.
3. If IP Assignment is Static: Set the IP addresses
Enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS
Server address. A soft keyboard appears when you tap
an input field.
4. Save the settings
Tap Save to confirm the changes, or Undo to leave without
saving.
5. Return to the main menu
Tap Exit to return to the home menu.
* IP Assignment:
DHCPv6: All IPv6 addresses, including options like the DNS and NTP
server addresses, are obtained automatically from a DHCPv6 server.
Autoconf: The system and gateway IP addresses will be assigned
automatically. The options, e.g. NTP and DNS server addresses, must be
set/assigned according to the DHCP Options setting. **
Static: The system and gateway IP addresses must be configured manually.
The options, e.g. NTP and DNS server addresses, must be set/assigned
according to the DHCP Options setting. **

or Static in the IP Assignment section according to your
network requirements.*
3. If IP Assignment is Static: Set the IP addresses
Enter the IP Address and Gateway. A soft keyboard appears
when you tap an input field.
4.
If IP Assignment is Static or Autoconf: Set DHCPOptions
Tap On or Off in the DHCP Options section according to
your network requirements.**
If DHCP Options are switched Off, you must set the DNS
and NTP server addresses on the web interface.
