2. Configure and save the following settings:
Parameter Description Configuration Method
Host Name
Configure the host name of the system.
Note: When the system broadcasts
DHCP DISCOVER messages, it will
report the configured host name to the
DHCP server via DHCP option 12. For
more information, contact the network
administrator.
If you change this parameter, the
system will reboot to make the change
take effect.

VLAN
The purpose of VLAN configurations on the system is to insert tag with VLAN information to the packets
generated by the system. When VLAN is properly configured for the Internet port on the system, the
system will tag all packets from the Internet port with the VLAN ID. The switch receives and forwards the
tagged packets to the corresponding VLAN according to the VLAN ID in the tag as described in IEEE Std
802.3.
In addition to manual configuration, the system also supports automatic discovery of VLAN via LLDP
or DHCP. The assignment takes effect in this order: assignment via LLDP, manual configuration, then
assignment via DHCP.
For more information on VLAN, refer to VLAN Feature on Yealink IP Phones.

Configuring LLDP
LLDP (Linker Layer Discovery Protocol) is a vendor-neutral Link Layer protocol, which allows systems to
receive and/or transmit device-related information from/to directly connected devices on the network that
are also using the protocol , and store the information about other devices.
When LLDP feature is enabled on systems, the systems periodically advertise their own information to the
directly connected LLDP-enabled switch. The systems can also receive LLDP packets from the connected
switch and obtain their VLAN IDs, and then start communications with the call control. The switch assigns a
VLAN ID to the endpoint through the LLDP protocol.
