DNS Addressing

The 1600 IP Telephones support DNS addresses and dotted decimal addresses. The telephone
attempts to resolve a non-ASCII-encoded dotted decimal IP address by checking the contents
of DHCP Option 6. See

DHCP Generic Setup

on page 44 for information. At least one address

in Option 6 must be a valid, non-zero, dotted decimal address, otherwise, DNS fails. The text
string for the DOMAIN system parameter (Option 15,

Table 8

) is appended to the address(es) in

Option 6 before the telephone attempts DNS address resolution. If Option 6 contains a list of
DNS addresses, those addresses are queried in the order given if no response is received from
previous addresses on the list. As an alternative to administering DNS by DHCP, you can
specify the DNS server and/or Domain name in the HTTP script file. But first SET the
DNSSRVR and DOMAIN values so you can use those names later in the script.

Note:

Note:

Administer Options 6 and 15 appropriately with DNS servers and Domain names
respectively.

VLANSEP is “1”

(On/Enabled)

AND the telephone is

not tagging frames,

OR if the telephone is

tagging frames with a

VLAN ID equal to

PHY2VLAN,

OR if the PHY2VLAN

value is zero.

The Ethernet switch forwarding logic

determines that frames received on the

Ethernet line interface are forwarded to the

secondary Ethernet interface or to the

telephone without regard to specific VLAN IDs

or the existence of tags.

AND the PHY2VLAN

Tagged frames received on the Ethernet line

interface will only be forwarded to the

secondary Ethernet interface if the VLAN ID

equals PHY2VLAN.
Tagged frames received on the Ethernet line

interface will only be forwarded to the

telephone if the VLAN ID equals the VLAN ID

used by the telephone.
Untagged frames will continue to be forwarded

or not forwarded as determined by the

Ethernet switch forwarding logic.
