Accessing and modifying the LAN Network Settings

To configure the IP Phone 1535 with network settings particular to your LAN
environment, you must access and configure the parameters of the Network
Settings option. With the LAN Network connection profile enabled, you can
access and configure the parameters of the Network Settings configuration
options:

Step

Action

1

From Main Menu, select Settings > Profile > LAN > Settings >
Network Settings, and press OK to accept.

2

Select the appropriate configuration options and set network
parameters (specific to your network configuration) for the LAN
connection profile:

a. Details: Displays the network configuration settings (MAC

address, DHCP, IP address, Subnet Mask, Gateway and DNS)
as currently configured on the IP Phone 1535.

b. DHCP: Used to set DHCP server information (for DHCP-enabled

network environments) or static IP Address information (for
DHCP-disabled network environments).

DHCP must be disabled to access further configuration options
(IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS1/DNS2
options). If you set DHCP to enabled, these options are
automatically configured (through the network DHCP server)
after the IP Phone 1535 connects to the network.

If manually configuring the DHCP options, the IP Phone 1535
will attempt to connect to the network using the parameters
you set. Should a connection failure occur in using your
manual DHCP values, the IP Phone 1535 will retain its current
configuration values. Check your values for correctness and
retry the connection.

c. IP Address: View or change network IP address information.

d. Subnet Mask: View or change the Subnet Mask information.

e. Gateway: View or change the default Gateway Address

information.

f.

DNS1/DNS2: View or change the primary and secondary
Domain Name Servers.
