Configuring IP
(When not set by a provisioning system)
Your video conference system supports IP version 4 (IPv4),
IP version 6 (IPv6) and Dual, which is the default setting. In all
three cases, the IP parameters can be assigned automatically
by the network, or you can set everything manually. When set
to Dual, the network interface can operate on both IP versions,
and have both an IPv4 and an IPv6 address.
If you wish to set the parameters manually, contact your network
administrator to obtain the required parameters.
If you choose to set the IP settings manually while using the
Dual mode, you have to set both the IPv4 and the IPv6 settings.
Start from step 2 in the instructions.
If an IP address is already assigned to your system, you find
the current IPv4 and/or IPv6 address on the System Information
page: Go to Home > Settings > System information.
The IPv4 Address and/or IPv6 Address of the system is shown
in the Network section on the System Information page.
Press Exit (the right most function key) to exit.
