Configuring IP

(When not set by a provisioning system)

Your video conference system supports IP version 4 (IPv4), 

IP version 6 (IPv6) and Dual, which is the default setting. In all 

three cases, the IP parameters can be assigned automatically 

by the network, or you can set everything manually. When set 

to Dual, the network interface can operate on both IP versions, 

and have both an IPv4 and an IPv6 address. 

If you wish to set the parameters manually, contact your network 

administrator to obtain the required parameters.

If you choose to set the IP settings manually while using the 

Dual mode, you have to set both the IPv4 and the IPv6 settings. 

Start from point 2 in the instructions. 

If your system is provisioned automatically, these IP settings 

may be overridden by the provisioning system.
