Getting Started
1.1.2
Configure VoIP Speakers Using Static IP Addresses
1. Connect the Windows PC and VoIP Speaker to an 802.3af compliant PoE switch, or a
PoE injector adapter (IEEE 802.3af compliant), for each VoIP Speaker.
2. Configure the Windows PC IP Address as 10.16.2.2, with Gateway IP Address as 10.16.2.1.
3. Use a web browser to open the VoIP Speaker Configuration Login Page
(Figure 1-1)
. Enter
the following into the browser’s address bar: http://10.16.2.1:8080.
4. Enter the Login Page sign-in credentials:
Username: maint Password: bogen
After entering the Username and Password, click
Submit. The VoIP Speaker Configuration window
(Java-applet) will open
(Figure 1-2)
.
5. Change the DHCP option from “On” to “Off” to
configure static IP Addresses.
NOTE: If after selecting “Off”, a popup screen
appears that says: “Cannot edit Speaker IP when
Primary IP is present. Please un-configure Primary IP from
Utility.” This alerts you to the fact that the speaker is
already configured and must first be un-configured
before you can proceed. See Section 3, How to
Un-configure a VoIP Speaker, for details on how to
un-configure the speaker.
If the VoIP Speaker Configuration Login Page above does not display, wait one minute, try again.

After the VoIP Speaker has been plugged into the PoE switch, it will take about a minute for the
VoIP Speaker to boot. Each VoIP Speaker will then repeatedly attempt to get an IP Address from
a DHCP server for one minute. After trying for one minute, the speaker will configure itself with a
default IP Address (10.16.2.1) and default Gateway IP Address (10.16.2.2).
NOTE: Only one speaker can be configured at a time using this IP address assignment process.
Connecting two or more un-configured IP speakers to the network without a DHCP server will cause
duplicate IP addresses and conflicts.
