To be able to connect to the Business Communications Manager (BCM), the WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 must be supplied with the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the Nortel Networks WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 and, optionally, a Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) Server. The WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 accept IP address configuration parameters either from manual configuration or from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Server.
Figure 1 Basic network configuration The basic WLAN IP Telephony network consists of the following components: • BCM (call server) • TFTP Server (optional) • DHCP Server (optional) • WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 • WLAN Handset 2210/2211 • Access Point (AP) To support the WLAN Handsets 2210/2211, the BCM system must run Release 3.6.1 (patch) or later software versions.
The TFTP Server must be capable of supporting multiple TFTP sessions. Nortel Networks has tested the following TFTP Servers. They are listed in order of preference. • Nortel Networks TFTP Server (Optical Network Management System [ONMS] application) •...
Vendor Specific Option 43, 128, 144, 157, 191, or 251 - Only one of these options is required. The DHCP Server encodes the Server 1 information using the same format as the IP Phone 2004. If the Server 2 information is also present in the option, it is ignored.
Firewall In many installations there will be a firewall installed between the wired and wireless parts of the network. It is beyond the scope of this document to specify how a firewall is managed, but the following guidelines can be used when configuring firewalls: •...
This requires that multicasting be enabled on the subnet used for the WLAN Handset 2211 and the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245. Refer to the Nortel Networks WLAN Handset 2210/2211 User Guide for more information on the PTT feature.

• RTP packets between the wireless telephone and the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 always contain 30 milliseconds (ms) worth of voice, regardless of what has been configured on the BCM. The WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 repackages the RTP packets to conform to the size that has been configured in the BCM.
Table 8 on page 77 APs on different subnets using WSS If you use Nortel Networks WSS 2250/2270 and Nortel Networks Access Ports 2230, both operating in Layer 3 mode, the WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 can perform roaming and handover across Access Ports 2230 on different subnets. The WSS 2270 operating in Layer 3 mode is on the same subnet as the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 group.
Mobility across different subnets when using DHCP If a WSS is not in use, and the IP address of the wireless handset has been acquired through DHCP, the wireless handset must be powered down and powered up when entering a new subnet. This enables functionality of the wireless handset when entering the WLAN RF signal coverage area of a different WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 group on a different subnet.
Refer to “Appendix D: Provisioning” on page 113 Tips: A site survey must be performed before installing a wireless LAN. Nortel Networks also recommends a site survey when an existing network structure is modified or when physical changes are made to a site.
IP addressing with DHCP A pool of alias IP addresses must be configured on the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 for the use of the wireless handsets. Refer to addresses on the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245. The use of a 22-bit subnet mask provides IP addresses for approximately 500 wireless handsets (1024 nodes).
WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 installation This section explains how to install the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245.

Appendix D: Provisioning Site survey To conduct a site survey, set up an AP at a particular location. Use a computer equipped with a WLAN device and site survey software or a WLAN Handset 2210/2211 operating in Site Survey mode to measure the strength of the signal from the AP. Move the wireless device around and repeat the measurements to determine the optimum number and best locations for the APs.
Conducting an effective site survey Consider the following points for an effective site survey. Network usage Examine the network usage: • How many people will be using a wireless handset? • What areas of the site require wireless handset access? •...
RF transmission testing Once the APs have been installed and configured, it is necessary to measure the strength of the RF transmissions. Signal strength testing ensures that all usage areas have adequate coverage. This can be performed in two ways. •...
Solving coverage issues Resolve coverage issues by adding or relocating APs or both. Solving overlap issues Resolve overlap issues by reassigning channels to the APs or by relocating the APs. Like channels require 15–20 dBm separation. See Figure Figure 33 Channel assignment Note: Refer to the AP vendor documentation for more information on overlap.
