Local Network
• IP Address: (Default 192.168.15.1.) The Internet Protocol (IP) address of your IP8100
series telephone is private and cannot be seen on the Internet. You can change this
number if needed, but it is usually not necessary to do so.
• Subnet Mask: (Default 255.255.255.0.) The subnet mask (sub-network mask) is
used to define a list of IP addresses allowed to a specified network segment (i.e., the
192.168.15.x subnet).
• Local Domain Name (optional): If desired, you can enter a name here to identify
your network.
Deny WAN Ping: This option allows the IP8100 series telephone’s public WAN IP to ignore
ping commands sent by Internet users. Hackers may ping public WAN IP address to
determine whether an IP address is vulnerable. When defaults to Deny, this option instructs
your network to ignore Ping queries and to help protect against unauthorized access by
others outside your network.
VPN Pass-Through: (Default On) The IP8100 series telephone supports VPN (Virtual
Private Network) pass-through for both PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol) and IPSec
(IP Security). Turning both of these On prevents your IP8100 series telephone from
blocking access to another network you may wish to use.
Universal Plug and Play
• Default is On. This option makes the IP8100 series telephone compliant with the
Universal Plug and Play standard, which allows compatibility with equipment made by
different manufacturers.
Remote Web Management
Default is off. If turned on, this feature allows you to change IP8100 series telephone
settings from a remote location (i.e., via the Internet).
• IP Address: Enter the Internet IP address of a computer that has access to the IP8100
series telephone. You can use 0.0.0.0 to allow all Internet IP addresses access to your
network.
• Port: Enter the port number used for access to the IP8100 series telephone.
Example: http://x.x.x.x:8080 (Where x.x.x.x is the WAN IP address of the IP8100 series
telephone and 8080 is the port used for the web management interface.)
Remote SSH Management
If turned on, this feature allows Vonage to remotely troubleshoot the IP8100 series
telephone via a secure shell (SSH). This feature is protected with an Admin password
granted to Vonage support staff only.
• IP Address: Enter the Internet IP address of the remote computer, which will be allowed
access to remotely configure the IP8100.

DHCP Screen
This screen allows you to view or change your local network IP settings.
When any device on your network is turned on, it must be assigned an IP address to
communicate with other devices on the network. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol) assigns these IP addresses to devices on your network.
