SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server Overview The SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server is an Ethernet LAN device that works with access points (APs) to provide QoS on the wireless LAN. Voice packets to and from the SpectraLink 8000 Wireless Telephones are intercepted by the SVP Server and encapsulated for prioritization as they are routed to and from an IP telephony server.
Multiple SVP Servers/Master SVP Server Multiple SVP Server environments are those which have more than one SVP Server. Up to four SVP010 models or up to two SVP020 models may be installed in any one subnet. Up to 16 models of SVP100 Servers may be installed in any one subnet.
The loss of a non-master SVP Server does not significantly affect the operation of the remaining SVP Servers but results in the re boot of all handsets. However, the loss of the master SVP Server results in a loss of all communication between all of the SVP Servers. This also means...

SVP Server. A master SVP Server must be identified in a multiple-SVP Server environment. SVP Server models may not be combined within one subnet. More than one SVP Server model type may be used within a facility if installed on different subnets. Wireless telephones cannot roam with uninterrupted service between subnets unless specific LAN components are present.

Typically, the requirements for use of SpectraLink 8000 Wireless Telephones are similar to those of wireless data devices. Contact Polycom, or a certified Polycom distributor, for specific information about your facility’s needs. The SpectraLink system must connect to APs that utilize SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP).
Some installations use a laptop to configure and maintain system components. TFTP server Required in an IP system to distribute software to the wireless telephones and SVP Server. May be on a different subnet than the IP gateway, IP telephony server, and APs. PN: 1725-36031-001_H.doc...

Installing the SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server As shown in the system diagram, the SVP Server is connected to the Ethernet switch. The specifications covered here allow for great flexibility in physical placement of the components within stated guidelines. See the Configuration and Administration document for your vendor’s IP system for information on LAN requirements, network infrastructure and IP addressing.

Mount the SVP Server to a wall The SVP Server can be mounted either horizontally or vertically. To mount the SVP Server to a wall: 1. Using a 1/8-inch drill bit, drill four pilot holes, on 1.84-inch by 12.1-inch centers (approximately equivalent to 1-13/16” by 12-1/8”).
SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server: Administration Guide for Mitel and Cisco Connect SVP Server to LAN Using a Cat. 5 cable, connect the the connecting port on the Ethernet switch. Connect power 1. Once the units have been properly grounded, connect the power plug from the AC adapter to the jack labeled Server.
TFTP. Connecting to the SVP Server The initial connection to the SVP Server must be made via a serial connection to establish the SVP Server’s IP address. After the IP address is established, connection to the SVP Server may be done via the network using telnet.
SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server: Administration Guide for Mitel and Cisco Connecting via telnet Telnet can only be used after the SVP Server’s IP address is configured. The telnet method of connection is used for routine maintenance of the SpectraLink Server for both local and remote administration, depending on your network.
The IP address and other network settings are established via the Network Configuration establish a hostname and enter the IP address of the location of any software updates you may obtain from Polycom. See Chapter 5 Software Maintenance for more information about installing software updates via TFTP.
S=SendAll every SVP Server on the LAN. address is established on EACH SVP Server via the serial connection. If you anticipate identical settings across the LAN, set just the IP address and custom hostname (if desired) for each SVP Server using the initial serial connection.
To change the IP address of the master SVP Server, change it in this menu and reboot the system. Then you may change alias IP addresses in each of the other SVP Servers without error. The following options must be configured:...
: The IP address of a network TFTP server that will be . This will cause the DHCP client in the SVP Server to DHCP . This will cause the DHCP client in the SVP Server to attempt to Syslog NONE Maintenance Lock .
Y upon exit. SVP Server Configuration Server. It is also where you can lock the SVP Server for maintenance and reset the SVP Server after maintenance. The type of gateway you are using determines the mode of the SVP Server.

DNS server. First Alias IP Address/Last Alias IP Address The SVP Server uses an IP address when acting as a proxy for the wireless telephone. Therefore, one alias IP address is required for every installed SpectraLink 8000 Wireless Telephone. These IP addresses must be entered as a range and must be assigned solely for this purpose.
Enable H.323 Gatekeeper This option is no longer used. Ethernet Link The SVP Server will auto-negotiate unless there is a need to specify a link speed. System Locked This option is used to take the system down for maintenance. The default entry is starting.
Select this option to set the DSCP tags. See QoS Configuration section below. Reset System If this option is selected, you will be prompted to reset the SVP Server upon exiting this screen. Reset All SVP Servers If this option is selected, you will be prompted to reset all SVP Servers upon exiting this screen.
SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server: Administration Guide for Mitel and Cisco QoS Configuration DSCP tags set packet priorities for QoS. DSCP Tag DSCP (Differentiated Services Code Point) is a QoS mechanism for setting relative priorities. Packets are tagged with a DSCP field in the IP header.

Therefore, if the master SVP Server needs to be replaced, be sure the system can be brought down with minimal call interruption. Be sure to reset all SVP Servers after the master has been replaced.
Polycom Corporation. The software versions that are running on the system components can be displayed via the Status You may obtain information about software updates from Polycom or its authorized dealer. At startup the SVP Server uses TFTP to check the software version it is running against the version in the TFTP location.
