Chapter 6 Understanding the VoIP Wireless Network

Configuring Wireless LAN

Summary of Configuring the Wireless LAN in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration

In Cisco Unified Communications Manager administration, you must enable a parameter called “Wi-Fi” for the wireless Cisco Unified IP Phone 9971. This can be done in one of the following locations in Cisco Unified Communications Manager administration:

To enable wireless LAN on a specific phone, select the enable setting for the Wi-Fi parameter in the Product Specific Configuration Layout section (Device > Phone) for the specific phone, and check the Override Common Settings check box.

To enable wireless LAN for a group of phones, select the enable setting for the Wi-Fi parameter on a Common Phone Profile Configuration window (Device > Device Settings > Common Phone Profile), check the Override Common Settings check box, then associate the phone (Device > Phone page) with that common phone profile.

To enable wireless LAN for all WLAN-capable phones in your network, select the enable setting for the Wi-Fi parameter on the Enterprise Phone Configuration window (System > Enterprise Phone Configuration), and check the Override Common Settings check box.

Note On the Phone Configuration window in Cisco Unified Communications Manager administration (Device

>Phone), when you configure the MAC address, use the wired-line MAC address. The wireless MAC address is not used for Cisco Unified Communications Manager registration.
