3616/26 Wireless IP Telephone
Installation and Configuration Guide
Regardless of the mode in which the Wireless Telephone is operating, the following components must
be configured:
– the IP address of the Wireless Telephone. This is automatically assigned if DHCP is used.
Phone IP
If using Static IP configuration, you must obtain a unique IP address for each phone from your network
administrator.
AVPP IP – the IP address of the Avaya Voice Priority Processor. If using Static IP configuration, this
is simply the IP address of the Avaya Voice Priority Processor. Note that the Avaya Voice Priority
Processor must be statically configured to have a permanent IP address. If DHCP is being used, the
Wireless Telephone will try the following, in order: the DHCP option 151, then a DNS lookup of
"SLNKSVP2" if the DHCP options 6 (DNS Server) and 15 (Domain Name) are configured.
The following components may be configured optionally:
– the IP address of a TFTP server on your network that holds software images for
TFTP Server IP
updating the Wireless Telephones. If this feature is configured (not set to 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255)
with either Static IP configuration or using DHCP option 66 (TFTP Server), or the Boot server/next
server (siaddr) field, the Wireless Telephone will check for newer software each time it is powered on
or comes back into range of your network. This check takes only a second and ensures that all Wireless
Telephones in your network are kept up-to-date with the same version of software.
OAI Server IP – the IP address of the NetLink OAI Gateway. If using static IP configuration, this is
simply the IP address of the NetLink OAI Gateway. If DHCP is being used, the Wireless Telephone
will try the DHCP option 152.
– used to identify subnets, when using a complex network which
Default Gateway and Subnet Mask
includes routers. Both of these must be configured (not set to 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255) for the
Wireless Telephone to contact any network components on a different subnet. They can be set using
either Static IP configuration or via DHCP options 3 (Default Gateway) and 1 (Subnet Mask)
respectively. Contact your network administrator for the proper settings for your network. Note that the
Wireless Telephones cannot "roam" across subnets, since they cannot change their IP address while
operational. Ensure that all your access points are attached to the same subnet for proper operation.
The Wireless Telephone can change subnets if DHCP is enabled, and the Wireless Telephone is
powered off then back on when within range of access points on the new subnet.
Call Server IP – the IP address of the Avaya Call Server. If using Static IP configuration, this is the IP
address of the Call Server. If DHCP is being used, the Wireless Telephone will try the following, in
order: DHCP Option 43 (Keyword MCIPADD), DHCP Option 176 (Keyword MCIPADD), and if
DHCP Option 6 (DNS Server) and Option 15 (Domain Name) are configured, DNS lookup of server
names found in the above options, and finally the DNS lookup of "AvayaCallServer.DOMAIN".
Call Server Port – the IP port address of the Avaya Call Server. This port normally defaults to 1719,
and is rarely changed. The port number entered must be coordinated with the administration of the
Call Server, otherwise the wireless phone will not be able to register with the Call Server. If DHCP is
being used, this can be changed via DHCP Option 43 (Keywork MCPORT) or DHCP Option 176
