Connected Line Identification Presentation/
Restriction

Feature provided by a VoIP/ISDN connection 
for outgoing calls.

COLP displays the phone number accepting 
the call on the calling party's display unit. 

The number of the party accepting the call is 
different to the dialled number, e.g., if the 
call is diverted or transferred. 

The called party can use COLR (Connected 
Line Identification Restriction) to prevent 
the number from appearing on the calling 
party's display. 

You are on a call. With a consultation call, 
you interrupt the conversation briefly to 
establish a second connection to another 
participant. If you end the connection to this 
participant immediately, then this was a 
consultation call. If you switch between 
the first and second participant, it is called 

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

Internet protocol that handles the automatic 
assignment of 

es to 

s. The protocol is made available in 

the network by a server. A DHCP server can, 
for example, be a router.

The phone contains a DHCP client. A router 
that contains a DHCP server can assign the IP 
addresses for the phone automatically from 
a defined address block. The dynamic 
assignment means that several 

s can share one IP address, 

although they use it alternately and not 
simultaneously.

With some routers you can specify that the 
IP address for the phone is never changed.

VoIP provider feature. You can specify any 
name that is to be shown to the other party 
during a call instead of your phone number.

DMZ describes a part of a network that is 
outside the firewall.

A DMZ is set up, as it were, between a net-
work you want to protect (e.g., a LAN) and a 
non-secure network (e.g., the Internet). 
A DMZ permits unrestricted access from the 
Internet to only one or a few network com-
ponents, while the other network compo-
nents remain secure behind the firewall.

Domain Name System

Hierarchical system that permits the assign-
ment of 

s that 

are easier to memorise. This assignment has 
to be managed by a local DNS server in each 
(W)LAN. The local DNS server determines 
the IP address, if necessary by enquiring 
about superordinate DNS servers and other 
local DNS servers on the Internet. 

You can specify the IP address of the pri-
mary/secondary DNS server. 

See also: 

Name of one (of several) web server(s) on 
the Internet (e.g., Gigaset.net). The domain 
name is assigned to the relevant IP address 
by DNS.

Digital Subscriber Line

Data transfer technology that allows Inter-
net access with e.g., 1.5 

 over a conven-

tional telephone line. Prerequisites: DSL 
modem and the appropriate service offered 
by the Internet provider.

Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer

The DSLAM is a switch cabinet in an 
exchange at which all subscriber connectors 
converge.
