If you were not assigned a specific IP address for your Prestige, use the following directions to 
set your Prestige to get it automatically via DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol).

Table 7   STATIC 

Get IP Address
Network Mode

Click STATIC to manually enter a fixed IP address.
Click DHCP to have the Prestige automatically obtain network settings at startup 

from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol server. These settings are not 

configurable.
Click PPPoE if your ISP uses Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. 

Network IP

This is the IP address your Prestige uses to connect to the wireless LAN. Type the 

address given to you by your network administrator. 

Network Subnet 

Mask

The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. Type the 

subnet mask given to you by your network administrator. See the appendix for 

information on subnetting. 

Default Gateway

Type the gateway IP address of the device to which your Prestige is to connect.

MAC Address

Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The 

MAC address is assigned at the factory and consists of six pairs of hexadecimal 

characters, for example, 00:A0:C5:00:00:02.
This field is read only and cannot be configured.

DNS Server IP

Type the DNS’ IP address for translating readable domain names into valid 

computer IP addresses. 

Second DNS 

Server IP

Type a backup DNS IP address for the Prestige to use in the event that the 

Prestige cannot connect to the preferred DNS.

APPLY

Click APPLY to save your changes without restarting the Prestige. Your wireless 

LAN, Internet and SIP settings changes do not take affect until you use RESTART 

(in the navigation panel).

Click CANCEL to begin configuring this screen afresh.
