WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 configuration
•
Server 2 IP – the IP address of the secondary Nortel Networks device. Currently, the wireless
handset does not make use of this information. If using Static IP configuration, this is simply
the IP address of the device. If DHCP is being used, the wireless handset tries to obtain the
device’s IP address and port information using the following DHCP options:
46, 128, 144, 157, 191, and 251.
•
Server 2 Port – the port number used by the secondary Nortel Networks device to
communicate with IP phones. Currently, the wireless handset does not make use of this
information. If using Static IP configuration, consult the device’s documentation for port
numbers. If DHCP is being used, the wireless handset tries to obtain the device’s IP address
and port information using the following DHCP options: 43, 128, 144, 157, 191, and 251.
ESSID
Select the option that enables the wireless handset to acquire APs with the correct ESSID each
time it is turned on.
With regard to Automatic Learn options, Broadcast ESSID must be enabled in the APs for ESSID
learning to function (or contact the AP vendor for specifics). Overlapping wireless systems
complicate the use of ESSID learning, as the wireless handset in an overlapping area could receive
conflicting signals. If this is the situation at the site, use Static Entry or Learn Once in an area
without overlapping ESSIDs.
•
Learn Once – allows the wireless handset to scan all ESSIDs for a DHCP Server or TFTP
Server, or both. Once either is found, the wireless handset retains the ESSID from the AP with
which it associates at that point. When overlapping wireless systems exist, the Learn Once
feature allows the wireless handset to use only the ESSID established the first time at all
subsequent power-ons. This ESSID is retained by the wireless handset until the ESSID option
is reselected.
•
Learn Always – allows the wireless handset to automatically learn the ESSID at each
power-on or loss of contact with the wireless LAN (out of range). This may be useful if the
wireless handset will be used at more than one site.
•
Static Entry – if the APs do not accept Broadcast ESSID, or if there are overlapping wireless
systems in use at the site, enter the correct ESSID manually.
License Management
License Management enables selection of the VoIP protocol that the site is licensed to download
and run. The UNIStim Protocol to use for the WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 is 010. Any other
protocol causes the wireless handset to malfunction.
After selecting the correct protocol for the site, Nortel Networks recommends upgrading the
firmware for the wireless handsets. See
