cause permanent damage to the device.
Note
If there is no DHCP server and the Cisco ATA 186 is programed to find one,
the function button will keep blinking.
About Using the Voice Configuration Menu
Some IVR menu options will require you to enter alphanumerica characters.
Alphanumeric entry differs from numeric entry in that you must enter the # key
after each character selected. Using
Table 3-1
as a guide, enter the appropriate
number key on your telephone handset as many times as needed to select the
number, letter, or symbol you want. For example, to enter 58sQ, you would enter:
5 # 8 # 7 7 7 7 7 # 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 # #
If you need to enter an alphanumeric value, the voice prompt will specifically tell
you to enter an alphanumeric value; otherwise, you should enter a numeric value
(0-9).
