Quick Start
2.4.8 DLS Server Address
This setting only applies if a DLS (Deployment Service) server is in use.
It is recommended to configure the DLS server address by DCHP, as this method enables full
Plug & Play and ensures the authenticity of the DLS server.
For manual configuration of the DLS server address see Section 3.3.7, “Configuration & Update
Service (DLS)”.
For the configuration of vendor-specific settings by DHCP, there are two alternative methods:
1) the use of a vendor class, or 2) the use of DHCP option 43.
2.4.8.1 Using Vendor Class
It is recommended to define a vendor class on the DHCP server, thus enabling server and
phone to exchange vendor-specific data exclusively. The data is disclosed from other clients. If
not done already, create a vendor class by the name of „OptiIpPhone“.
The following steps are required for the configuration of the Windows DHCP server.
Setting up a new vendor class using the Windows DHCP Server
1. In the Windows Start menu, select Start > Programs > Administrative Tools > DHCP.
2. In the DHCP console menu, right-click the DHCP server in question and select Define
Vendor Classes... in the context menu.
