DHCP

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) allows a server to assign IP addresses and other parameters to devices such as the 4600 Series IP Telephones on an as-needed basis. This eliminates the need to configure each end station with a static IP address. The DHCP application also passes information to the 4600 Series IP Telephone, identifying the IP Addresses of the PBX and the TFTP server, and the paths to the upgrade script and the application file on the TFTP server. For further information, refer to DHCP and TFTP Servers and
