Erasing the IP Office Configuration

The configuration settings on an IP Office can be erased. During this process the IP Office is rebooted and starts with a set of default settings.

This process does not erase the security settings of the IP Office system. Those can only be reset by a separate process detailed in the IP Office Installation Manual.

Erasing the Configuration
This action returns the IP Office system to its default settings as listed below.

1. Select File | Advanced | Erase Configuration (Default).

2. Enter a valid user name and password.

3. The IP Office system will be rebooted.

Default Data Settings
When a defaulted IP Office control unit is switched on, it requests IP address information from a DHCP Server on the network.

• If a DHCP server responds, the control unit defaults to being a DHCP client and uses the IP address information supplied by the DHCP server.

• If no DHCP Server responds, the control unit defaults to being the DHCP server for the LAN using the following settings:  

• • For its LAN1 it allocates the IP address 192.168.42.1 and IP Mask 255.255.255.0.
  • It supports 200 DHCP clients using the addresses range 192.168.42.2 and 192.168.42.201, the IP Mask 255.255.255.0 and default gateway address 192.168.42.1 (the Control Unit's LAN1 address).

• • On IP412 and Small Office Edition control units, LAN2 is allocated the address 192.168.43.1 with IP Mask 255.255.255.0. On Small Office Edition control units, the RJ45 Ethernet WAN port is treated as LAN2.

Default Telephony Settings

• Extension and user entries are created for all physical analog and DS phone ports on the control unit and any connect expansion modules. Users are assigned extension numbers from 201 upwards.

• User names are defaulted to "Extn201", "Extn202", etc.

• A hunt group called Main is created, containing the first 10 user extensions.

• A default incoming call route is created for voice calls with the hunt group Main as its destination.

• A default incoming call route is created for data calls with the RAS service as its destination.
