SpectraLink Corporation Installation, Configuration, and Administration NetLink SVP Server (within IP environments) Notes on System Configuration In an IP system using subnets to differentiate telephony areas, each subnet must have its own access points. Each subnet may require an SVP Server to maintain voice quality, but this depends on traffic volume and router capacity.

Screw the other end of the two mounting plates (oblong screw holes) to the rack. 4. Repeat steps 1-3 for each additional SVP Server. The mounting plate is designed to provide the correct minimum spacing between units.
SpectraLink Corporation Installation, Configuration, and Administration NetLink SVP Server (within IP environments) Configuring the NetLink SVP Server During initial setup of the NetLink SVP Server the IP address is established and the maximum number of active calls per access point is set. Optionally, you may enter a hostname and a location for software updates via TFTP.
Network Configuration Allows you to set network configuration options, including IP address and hostname. Change Password Allows you to change the password for NetLink SVP Server access. SVP-II is a designation used internally by SpectraLink Engineering. PN: 72-0178-01-C.doc Page 17...
This is also where you may optionally establish a hostname and Configuration enter the IP address of the location of any software updates you may obtain from SpectraLink. See section 6, the Software Maintenance section, of this document for more information about installing software updates via TFTP. Scroll to and select by pressing Enter.

NetLink Wireless Telephone. These IP addresses must be entered as a range and must be assigned solely for this purpose. When multiple SVP100 Servers are installed, a different range must be configured in each SVP Server. In determining how many addresses to configure per SVP Server, use this formula: (# of handsets / # of SVP Servers) + 30%.
