How can I setup the TCPIP hostname?

Anonymous · ‎08-09-2016

I'd like for the device to show up in my DHCP list as line1.domain.local instead of Polycom_[MAC ADDRESS].domain.local

Is there any way to do this?

VVX500

UC 5.5.0

Windows Server DHCP

POE

LOL

(OK , but seriously Steffen, I know about the beta software... Still is this possible?)

Love the devices BTW

Thanks for your reply,

I was looking for a way to use a variable to set the hostname. For example:

device.host.hostname = device.logincred.user

Is that possible?
