Initial Setup and Configuration

Licensing

The SPA9000 is shipped from the factory with a four-user license. This means that the SPA9000 allows
registration from up to four external IP addresses (first come/first serve). If you need to support more
client stations, you can purchase a 16-user license and install it by entering the license key using the
<License Keys> parameter on the Provisioning page. To obtain a license, contact
[email protected].

Using DHCP or Static IP Addressing

Before running the Setup Wizard, you need to decide whether you are using DHCP or static IP
addressing. Static IP addressing is recommended for the SPA400. The SPA900 series phones typically
obtain their addresses through the DHCP server on the broadband router that connects to the broadband
modem. The SPA9000 can either be assigned a static address if this has been provided by your ISP, or it
can be assigned a dynamic IP address by the DHCP server on your router or by the ISP.

If you are using static IP addressing for the SPA400, you need to know the correct static IP address to
assign. To determine the dynamically assigned address of the SPA400, you can use the Setup Wizard or
view the DHCP client table for the broadband router.

To determine the current IP address of the SPA9000, complete the following steps.

Step 1

Connect an analog telephone to one of the FXS (RJ-11) ports on the SPA9000.

Step 2

Press **** on the keypad to access the IVR menu.

Step 3

Press 110# and note the response.

Using the Wizard for Initial Configuration
