IP addressing with DHCP

A pool of alias IP addresses must be configured on the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 for the use of the wireless handsets. Refer to “Functional description” on page 35 for information on IP addresses on the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245.

The use of a 22-bit subnet mask provides IP addresses for approximately 500 wireless handsets (1024 nodes). Allocate a pool of an equal number of IP addresses on the DHCP Server and WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 for the wireless handsets.

For example:

142.223.204.1 to 142.223.205.254 are allocated on the DHCP Server for the use of the wireless handsets.

142.223.206.1 to 142.223.207.254 are configured on the WLAN IP Telephony Manager for IP aliases for the wireless handsets.

Ensure that all these IP addresses are reserved on the DHCP Server for the use of the wireless handsets and not assigned to any other device.

Programming Records

Use the WLAN Programming Records spreadsheet (a Microsoft ExcelTM file) to record settings for each handset. The spreadsheet is located on the BCM documentation CD. Use the recorded settings when you configure the handsets. Refer to WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 configuration on page 55 for instructions on configuring the handsets.
