In the
 Address Assignment
 area, select the 
IP address type
Select 
Obtained automatically
 if you want your phone to be assigned a dynamic IP address by 
a DHCP server in your local network. No further settings are necessary for the local net-
work. 
Select 
Static
 if you would like to set up a static IP address for your phone. A static IP address 
is useful, for example, if port forwarding or a DMZ is set up on the router for the phone.
The following fields are displayed when you select 
IP address type
 = 
Static
:
IP address
Enter an IP address for your phone. This IP address allows your phone to be reached by 
other subscribers in your local network (e.g. PC). 
192.168.2.2 has been preset.
Please note the following:
– The IP address must be from the address block for private use that is used in the 
router. This is generally in the range 192.168.0.1 – 192.168.255.254 with 
Subnet 
mask
 255.255.255.0. The subnet mask determines that the first three parts of the IP 
address must be identical for all subscribers in your LAN. 
– The static IP address must not belong to the address block (IP pool range) that is 
reserved for the DHCP server of the router. It must also not be used by another device 
on the router.
If necessary, check the settings on the router.
Subnet mask
Enter the subnet mask for your device's IP address. For addresses from the address block 
192.168.0.1 – 192.168.255.254, the subnet mask 255.255.255.0 is generally used. 
This is preconfigured when the phone is supplied. 
Default gateway
Enter the IP address for the standard gateway, by means of which the local network is 
connected with the Internet. This is generally the local (private) IP address for your 
router (e.g. 192.168.2.1). Your phone requires this information to be able to access the 
Internet. 
192.168.2.1 has been preset.
