After you successfully connect the IP Phone 1535 to the network using
the WiFi connection interface, you make both voice and video calls using
that interface and the LAN profile becomes disabled. So, in this example,
when you enable the WiFi connection profile, all voice and video calls made
using the IP Phone 1535 will now be made through the WiFi connection to
the network, and the LAN connection profile will be disabled (along with all
menu selections associated with configuring the LAN connection profile).
