When turning of dhcp, dont forget to set all other attributes manually. Ones that would effect this are

IP Address
Subnet mask
Gateway
boot method tftp/ftp
Server Address
username/password if ftp
vlan

Assuming you are setting a hard IP for the server, if using a url then donot forget to add dns entry also

Sounds like a firmware bug, VLAN or other network configuration bug in the phone (subnet perhaps?)

Subject: [asterisk-users] Polycom Static IP



I am still having issues with my Polycom 301 phones when I disable DHCP. I give the phone a static address and I keep getting the error ‘could not contact boot server using existing config’. As soon as I set it back to DHCP enabled the phone can see the boot server and I’m online.
