The Spectralink 84-series phone is a wireless device; however, it will not have any wireless configuration by default;
it would not understand what network it is going to be set up with. There is a device called the Spectralink Quick
Network Connect (QNC), where you can configure the Spectralink 84-series wireless setting as described in this
QNC guide. The QNC allows you to configure up to 4 Spectralink 84-series phones at a time. The main purpose of
this QNC guide is to enable the phone to acquire the IP address from the wireless network.
QNC device has a built-in IP address of 192.168.1.1. You need to connect the QNC directly with the PC point to
point. You will need to define a static IP address in the PC in order to communicate with the QNC. Once connected,
the QNC can be browsed with the address 192.168.1.1.
In the first screen, we need to select Spectralink 84-series.
There are five wireless security types configurable on the Spectralink phones. You can choose to use any one of
them. The following are two examples of configuring two of the five Wireless security types.
Note: Step A must be chosen for each Wireless Security Type and steps B, C, D, and E are common to all.
Wireless Security type configurations:
a. WPA2- Enterprise Wireless Security Type
In the Wi-Fi settings,
• Put the SSID. Below it is shown
as 'MasergyLab'.
• Choose the security type. Below,
it is WPA2-Enterprise.
• Fast Roaming is 'OKC'
• WPA2-Enterprise security type is
chosen to PEAP.
• If PEAP is chosen, then we need
to load Root CA certificate of the
authenticating server. We can do
that by choosing 'Upload Files'.
If we choose some other security
types such as WPA2-PSK, we
need not load any certificate.
NOTE: The certificate file must
be in TEXT format. If you upload
certificate in CER or binary
(*.cer) format, it will let you
upload it; however, when the
certificate is in CER format, the
data from the QNC cannot be
loaded to the phone.
• Then we need to put 'Username'
and 'Password' which can
authenticate with the radius server and the user can log in.
