First steps
Connecting a PC to the Web configurator
Preconditions:
u A standard Web browser is installed on the PC, such as Internet Explorer
version 6.0 or higher, or Firefox version 1.0.4 or higher.
u Your router is connected to the Internet.
The Web configurator is the Web interface for your phone. It allows you to
select the settings for your phone via your PC's Web browser.
You can find a description of the Web configurator's functions on
¢
page 24.
For information on how to adjust the settings on your phone without a PC,
¢
page 48.
Connect your PC to the phone's Web configurator via the phone's (local)
IP address.
¤
Establish the phone's current IP address:
The IP address will appear on the display after booting if dynamic allocation
is activated for the IP address. The address can change with every boot
sequence.
Information on creating a static IP address can be found on
¢
page 53.
¤
Launch the Web browser on your PC.
¤
Enter http:// and the phone's current IP address (for example:
http://192.168.0.3) into the address field of the Web browser.
¤
Press the Enter key.
A connection is established to the phone's Web configurator.
Please note
Your phone is preconfigured for dynamic assignment of the IP address. In
order for your router to "recognize" the phone, dynamic IP address assign-
ment must also be activated on the router, meaning that the router's DHCP
server is activated.
If your network is configured with a static IP address for your router, you will
also have to assign a static IP address to your phone
