Chapter 3: Requirements


Introduction

The 4600 Series IP Telephones use Internet Protocol (IP) technology with Ethernet line interfaces. The IP telephones supplement the existing Avaya IP Solutions platform. This feature provides the user with the capability to natively administer and maintain new 4600 Series IP Telephones.

The 4600 Series IP Telephones provide support for DHCP, TFTP, and HTTP over IPv4/UDP, which enhance the administration and servicing of the phones. These phones use DHCP to obtain dynamic IP Addresses and TFTP or HTTP to download new versions of software for the phones.

Using either a built-in hub or a switched port, the 4600 Series IP Telephones offer one desktop connection for both the telephone set and the PC.

NOTE: In all cases, references to “Avaya Communication Manager” or “CM” apply only to 4600 Series IP Telephones supporting H.323.
