Purpose
Bluetooth is a wireless personal area
network (WPAN) protocol that specifies
how devices communicate over short
distances.
BootP enables a network device, such as
the Cisco IP Phone, to discover certain
startup information, such as the IP address.
CDP is a device-discovery protocol that
runs on all Cisco-manufactured equipment.
Using CDP, a device can advertise its
existence to other devices and receive
information about other devices in the
network.
DHCP dynamically allocates and assigns
an IP address to network devices.
DHCP enables you to connect an IP phone
into the network and the phone to become
operational without the need to manually
assign an IP address or to configure
additional network parameters.

The Cisco IP Phones use CDP to
communicate information such as auxiliary
VLAN ID, per port power management
details, and Quality of Service (QoS)
configuration information with the Cisco
Catalyst switch.
DHCP is enabled by default. If disabled,
you must manually configure the IP
address, subnet mask, and gateway on each
