Description

Network setting method using DSS {NETWORK SETTING METHOD USING DSS}

The present invention relates to an Internet key phone system, and in particular, a network setting method using DSS that enables not only to change the environment mode of a set network using Direct Station Selection (DSS) but also to easily check the display of the set network environment value. It is about.

The Internet key phone system is to build a key phone and a local area network (LAN) in one system.

The Internet keyphone system is an integrated system of voice and data that enables key phone functions, Internet access, and LAN-to-LAN connection with remote nodes.

In other words, the key phone system integrates all communication elements in the existing office such as telephone, fax, data communication equipment, and network equipment for LAN connection.

In the conventional Internet key phone system, since all operations are performed using an IP (Internet Protocol) address, all devices must be assigned an IP address. Thus, all devices can operate as a system only after basic network settings have been performed.

As an example of the network configuration, the keypad phone can be set up basic network settings or other additional functions using number buttons and program buttons.

DSS (Direct Station Selection) is a device equipped with a plurality of multi-function buttons that can perform the basic network settings or additional functions, and can perform a plurality of additional functions in conjunction with a key phone.

Hereinafter, the DSS will be described in detail.

1A is a diagram illustrating a multifunction button of a conventional DSS, and FIG. 1B is a diagram illustrating the meaning of a multifunction button in a network setting mode of a conventional DSS.

As shown in Figs. 1A and 1B, the multifunction buttons of the DSS have a matrix structure of 4 × 12, each of which has red and green light emitting diodes that can represent three colors (red, green, orange). Have

Here, when the red LED blinks, it may mean that another person is using an additional function corresponding to the blinking button, that is, the blinking button.

In addition, when the green light emitting diode is blinking, it may mean that the user himself is using the blinking button, and when the red diode and the green diode are combined and blinking in orange, the ringing sound may be generated. .

If the user wants to set up a network using the DSS among the plurality of additional functions of the DSS, the multifunction button of the DSS may be changed to have the same meaning as in FIG. 1B.

Referring to Figure 1b, the multi-function button of the DSS is a numeric command button from 0 to 9, * command button, # command button, IP address input command button, subnet mask input command button, gateway input command button, gatekeeper input command button It can be converted into a button indicating the meaning of a reset input command button.

The user may set the network by using the button whose meaning is converted as described above.

For example, if the user wants to input an IP address, the user first selects an IP address input command button and then selects each button corresponding to the IP address in order to set the IP address.

Here, the command button for network setting is to press the multi-function button 36 and 48 simultaneously, the IP address input command button 37, the subnet mask input command button 38, the gateway command input button 39, The gatekeeper input command button may be 40. Also, 1 button is 1, 13 button is 2, 25 button is 3, 2 button is 4, 14 button is 5, 26 button is 6, 3 button is 7, 15 button is 8, 27 button is 9, 4 button is Assume that the * and 16 buttons have changed meanings to 0 and the 28 buttons to #.

When the user presses the 36 and 48 buttons simultaneously, the power is supplied and the DSS can be in network configuration mode.

In normal use, power is supplied without pressing the button. When you want to switch to network setting mode, press the multifunction button and supply power.

When the DSS is operated in the network setting mode, the multifunction button is given a different meaning from the numeric buttons as shown in FIG. 1B.

At this time, the button used is indicated by a red light emitting diode.

For example, a conventional example of setting a basic network is as follows.

(IP Address: 192.168.1.10, Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0, Gateway: 192.168. 1.1, Gatekeeper: 192.168.1.2)

-In the case of Gatekeeper, press the button corresponding to multi-function button 40, press '192 * 168 * 1 * 2', and press '#' to save.

As such, when the IP address information, the subnet mask information, the gateway information, and the gatekeeper information are stored, the user selects a reset button corresponding to the multifunction button 41.

When the user presses the reset button, the DSS can be reset and network configuration can be completed.

As described above, even in the prior art, the DSS network environment can be set.

However, the network environment setting of the conventional DSS had a limitation of using a string, and there was no way to check whether the set values were properly input.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, it is an object to enable the setting and change of the network environment when using the DSS of the Internet environment.

It is also an object of the present invention to be able to provide a display mode for checking a set and changed network environment.

Hereinafter, a process of configuring a network using a DSS according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 5.

First, the user determines whether to switch to the network setting mode in the key phone system (S500).

If the user wants to switch to the network setting mode, and receives a network configuration request command from the user (S501). The network setting request command is set in advance by a system developer or an administrator, and may select at least one of the multifunction buttons of the DSS. For example, the network configuration request command may be the same as pressing 36 and 48 buttons simultaneously among multi-function buttons of the DSS.

When the network setup request command is received from the user, the DSS is supplied with power, and when the power is supplied, the DSS is converted to the network setting mode, and the multifunction button of the DSS may be given the same meaning as in FIG. 1B (S502).

In this case, the button given the same meaning as in FIG. 1B may be displayed as a red light emitting diode. The user can set a network by operating a button indicated by the red light emitting diode.

Here, the user may change the set network environment mode (S503).

That is, if you want to change the set network environment mode, press the Set / Display button (multi-function button 10), the Set / Display button is displayed with a red light emitting diode to indicate that the new network environment mode settings.

Thereafter, the conventional network setting mode (shown in FIG. 1B) is changed to set a new network environment mode (S507).

If the user does not want to change the set network environment mode or a new network environment mode is set, the user selects at least one of the buttons and receives and stores network setting information from the user (S504). The network setting information may include at least one of IP address information, subnet mask information, gateway information, and gatekeeper information.

Here, the user may check whether the set network setting information is correctly input (S505).

If the user wants to check the set network configuration information, the network configuration mode is initially selected, but the set / display button (multi-function button 10) is pressed twice to enter the environment display mode. At this time, the Set / Display button is indicated by the green light emitting diode to indicate the environment display mode.

Referring to FIG. 4, it is possible to confirm whether or not the environment of the set network is properly input by displaying as letters / numbers (S508).

If the set network environment is confirmed in the display mode or the user does not want to check, the received network setting information is stored and a DSS restart command is received from the user. The DSS restart command is set in advance and may select at least one of the multifunction buttons of the DSS. For example, it may be the same as selecting a button corresponding to 41 of the DSS multi-function buttons.

If the DSS is restarted in response to the DSS restart command received from the user, network setting may be completed (S506).

As described above, when the DSS of the Internet environment is used, the network environment may be set and changed, and a display mode for checking the changed and changed network environment may be provided.

As a result, the method of changing and confirming the network configuration mode according to the present invention enables not only the change of the network configuration mode for extending the use of character strings without the need of resupplying power, but also the values set through the display mode. You can check the input.
