INSTALLATION
ARCHITECTURE
The Avanti 3015ip requires a link to a power source and one to the
data network. If Power-over-Ethernet is not enabled in the organiza-
tion, it is necessary to use a power adaptor.
Optionally, a PC can be connected to the network through the
Avanti 3015ip. Both the telephone and the PC are connected to the
network through a full-line-speed Ethernet switch. This ensures
audio quality and priority regardless of network activity.
Figure 1 Avanti 3015ip basic external connection schematics
The Avanti 3015ip connects directly to an Ethernet network. If con-
nected to an office local area network (LAN), the Avanti 3015ip
requires a category 5 10/100 BaseT UTP cable with an RJ-45 connec-
tor. Figure 1, above, shows the basic external connection architecture
of the Avanti 3015ip.
3.1 CONNECTING THE AVANTI 3015IP THROUGH THE WAN
The Avanti 3015ip can be connected at a remote location through
Public Internet Wide Area Network (WAN). Connection to the WAN
requires a broadband internet link, such as a DSL or cable modem.

Figure 2 Connection to the WAN
3.2 PC CONNECTION
A PC can be connected to the network through the Avanti 3015ip. In
this case, the Avanti 3015ip is transparent to the PC operation. Calls
arriving or made by the Avanti 3015ip do not affect PC operation, nor
does this operation interfere with the Avanti 3015ip’s.
When connecting a PC through the Avanti 3015ip, the data cable
from the Avanti 3015ip (see Figure 4, below) connects to an Ethernet
network card in the PC.

4. INSTALLING
THE AVANTI 3015ip
Before beginning the installation and setup process, make sure you
have a list of all the IP addresses of the new extensions, as well as the
address of the IP Server, the FTP Server, etc. The source for all these
addresses is the customer’s IT manager.
After unpacking and visually inspecting the Avanti 3015ip and its
accessories, connect the Avanti 3015ip to the network (see Figure 4).
If using a power adaptor, connect the data line first, then connect
the power adaptor following the instructions in Section 5.3 (See Fig-
ure 4, below).

If Power-over-EtherNet is enabled, follow the instructions in Section
5.3 before inserting the data connector on the rear side jack of the
Avanti 3015ip (see Figure 4).

If this is the first time the Avanti 3015 ip is connected, perform the ini-
tial setup procedure.
5. INITIAL SETUP 5.1 SETUP CONTROLS
During the setup process you are required to enter data, confirm
your choices, etc. In addition to the softkeys appearing on the
screen, you may use the following buttons:
Keys Meaning
[LO HI] Use for navigating along an address line, same as
with the arrow keys on a computer keyboard.
Dialpad buttons Use for digit input
[#] Saves the data entered and continues the setup pro-
cess. Same as <Enter> on a computer keyboard.
[*]Dot (“.”)
[0], [1] For boolean parameters (i.e. parameters whose possi-
ble values are Yes or No), pressing [0] changes the
value to No, [1] changes to Yes. This can be used
instead of pressing the
{YES} and {NO} softkeys
displayed after pressing
{EDIT} .

5.2 DHCP CONFIGURATION PRINCIPLES
Section 4.11, “Working with DHCP” in the UNITe IP TVSe Server Sys-
tem Manual, contains a detailed explanation of the principles of con-
figuration for DHCP support.
The configuration options for the Avanti 3015ip telephone are orga-
nized in three menus: the IP Menu, the TVS Menu and the User
Menu. Following is a description of these menus and the navigation
possibilities between them.
If a DHCP Server is enabled in the system, it may be configured in
one of two modes:
•A
ddressing only mode: The DHCP server provides an IP address
for the IP extension, as well as the subnet and router addresses,
but the FTP Server address needs to be entered manually.
•
Full info mode: The DHCP server provides IP addresses and addi-
tional pre-defined data, such as the FTP Server address.
The Avanti 3015ip Setup procedure is performed by means of three
menus:
•
IP Menu: Enables you to configure DHCP support.
•
TVS Menu: Enables definition of the telephone’s IP address and
network submask, as well as of the FTP Server’s IP address, in
case it was not defined on the DHCP Server.
•
User Menu: Enables you to define the Avanti 3015ip extension
number and password. The password must be the
5.3 AUTOMATIC ERROR DETECTION
If you enter a value greater than 255 in one of the fields of an IP
address, the Avanti 3015ip Setup software will automatically detect it
and reject your input.
The network fields of the Phone IP address and Router IP address
must be the same, as yielded by a logical AND operation between
each of these addresses and the Subnet Mask. Otherwise, at the end
of the IP Menu the display will show:
IP CONFIG. ERROR
<BACK> <EXIT>
Pressing {EXIT} forces the Setup program to store the address you
entered. If you press
{BACK} , the menu is displayed again from the
beginning, so that you can correct the wrong entry.
Keys Meaning
Softkeys When required to enter a value manually, remember
that the leftmost softkey under the display accepts
the present value and moves on to the next option,
while the middle softkey returns you to the previous
screen.
TIP You can press [LO HI]
upon entry to a screen to
place the cursor directly on
an IP address line. Pressing
LO will place the cursor in
the first field, while pressing
HI will locate it on the last
field. You can navigate
through the fields of an input
field using [LO HI] as
required. The digits you type
will overwrite existing values.
To jump to the next field
after entering less than
three digits on an IP address,
press [*].
