Initializing and registering the phone
After you have set up the phone and connected it to the network, it will begin to initialize. Normally the initialization is completely automatic, using DHCP.
If your network does not support DHCP, you must obtain the IP address, netmask, IP gateway, and DNS server from your Internet service provider or your network administrator and enter them manually when you are asked to do so on the display.
NOTE: In must cases, the phone will be automatically configured or manually by the network administrator. If not available then you will need the registration information received from your Internet service provider or your network administrator -
normally the phone or extension number, the password, and the registrar. The configuration is then done via the device web-interface see: wiki.gigasetpro.com
