Description
DHCP
DHCP
dhcp
Enables or disables DHCP. 
Enabling DHCP populates the 
required network information. The 
DHCP server serves the network 
information that the IP phone 
requires. If the IP phone is unable to 
get any required information, then 
you must enter it manually. DHCP 
populates the following network 
information:
IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, 
Broadcast Address, Domain Name
Servers (DNS), TFTP, HTTP 
HTTPS, and FTP servers, and 
Timer Servers.
Note: For DHCP to automatically 
populate the IP address or qualified 
domain name for the TFTP server, 
your DHCP server must support 
Option 66.
