Connect to the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 101
the entire WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 group fails. All active calls
are lost and no future calls can be placed until the master WLAN IP
Telephony Manager 2245 is replaced (either by installing a spare or by
reconfiguring one of the slaves to be a master).
• Alternately, if one of the slave WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245s fails,
the group as a whole still functions, although some individual calls
can be lost due to the reassigning of handsets throughout the group.
One less WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 also means that the call
capacity of that node is lost until the failed WLAN IP Telephony Manager
2245 is replaced.
A keep-alive packet exchange runs between the wireless handset and
the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 every 30 seconds. If the wireless
handset detects that the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 is unreachable,
the wireless handset resets itself and attempts to reestablish a connection
with the master WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245.
Configuration tasks
The following are the tasks required to configure the WLAN IP Telephony
Manager 2245:
1. "Connect to the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245" (page 101) .
2. "Configure the network" (page 103) .
3. "Configure the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245" (page 106) .

configured. Later, you can use Telnet to configure the IP address of the
TFTP Server where the software files are located and the hostname.
Connect to the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245
The initial connection to the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 must be
made through a serial connection to establish the WLAN IP Telephony
Manager 2245 IP address. After the IP address is established, connection
to the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 can be done through the network
using Telnet.
