Pre-Installation Checklist for Static Addressing

Before performing static addressing, verify that all the requirements listed in the Requirements to Verify about the Network section of the Pre-Installation Checklist are met. You do not have to consider item 4., as it refers to the DHCP server. In addition, you must have the values for the following parameters. Failure to do so can cause data entry errors that prevent the telephone from working. Such errors can also have a negative impact on your network. Print copies of this checklist for each subnet.

	1.	The IP Address of the media server/gatekeeper (H.323) or the Registration Server (SIP).
	2.	The transport layer port number of the address of the Management Complex (media server/gatekeeper, applicable only to telephones running H.323 software). Although this can be a value between 0 and 65535, the default value is 1719. Do not change this value unless it conflicts with an existing port assignment. For SIP, the transport layer port number of the Registration Server; the default is 5060.
	3.	The IP Address of the gateway/router.
	4.	The IP netmask.
	5.	The IP Address of the TFTP server.
