2.7 Provisioning the IP8820/IP8830/IP8840
IP8820, IP8830 and IP8840 phones support ‘plug and play’ installation employing the
automated provisioning process described in Appendix F
. After connecting to the LAN, desktop
PC and power, refer to section 2.1
, the IP phone retrieves LAN settings including IP address,
subnet mask and default gateway address from the local DHCP (Dynamic Host Control
Protocol) server. In addition, the IP phone requests address information for the provisioning
server where configuration and software files are maintained. The IP phone downloads the
configuration and, if required, software files from the provisioning server. When complete, the
IP phone automatically registers and subscribes for SIP call services using the information from
the configuration files. Refer to Appendix D
for more details.
IP8800 series phones incorporate means for manual configuration when the automated process
is not fully available. As a minimum, the IP8800 phones require the information below for
proper operation. When not assigned through the automated provisioning process, manual
entry of the below parameters is required for proper operation.
- Line 1 SIP parameters including:
o Line 1 SIP call server IP address
o Line 1 Name (SIP user id)
o Line 1 Authentication user name
o Line 1 Authentication password
In addition using static IP addressing requires manual entry of the following IP network
configuration data.
o IP address of the IP phone
o Default gateway address
o Subnet mask
Two methods are available for manual configuration. The LCD Configuration Menu permits
local configuration using the dial pad and softkeys, see section 3
The second method employs
the IP8800 Web Manager, which allows access to the IP phone configuration using a Web
browser, see section 4
. Manual configuration permits assignment of all parameters required to
gain full operation of the IP phone. However, manual configuration is time consuming and is
intended only to augment the automated process and to allow customizing user preferences.
For configuration with the WiFi Module installed, refer to section 5
.
