Configure Voice

Voice over Wireless IP (VoWIP) is a new technology, merging VoIP (Voice

over Wireless IP

over IP) with 802.11 wireless LANs to create a wireless telephone system.

Service

Organizations that add VoWIP to their wireless LANs can deploy and

 

manage voice and data over a single wireless backbone, reserving some

 

portion of network bandwidth to support real-time voice

 

communications.

 

For a Voice over Wireless IP (VoWIP) service (sometimes also referred to

 

simply as VoIP, or Voice over IP), you can configure either local or RADIUS

 

server authentication, and add Access Lists (ACLs) to restrict user access.

 

This section contains the following information about how to configure

 

VoWIP services:
