DHCP option 151

DNS lookup of “SLNKSVP2” if the DHCP options 6 (DNS Server) and 15 (Domain Name) are configured.

Server 1 IP – the published IP address of the BCM. If the wireless handset is using static IP address configuration, enter the published IP address of the BCM. If the WLAN handset is using DHCP, the DHCP Server must be configured to provide the published IP address (and UDP port number) of the BCM using one of the following DHCP options:

46, 128, 144, 157, 191, and 251.

Server 1 Port – the UDP port number used by the wireless handset to contact the LTPS Node Connect Service to request registration with the BCM. If the wireless handset is using static IP address configuration, enter port number 4100. If the WLAN handset is using DHCP, the DHCP Server must be configured to provide the published IP address and UDP port number of the BCM using one of the following DHCP options: 46, 128, 144, 157, 191, and 251.

The following components can be configured optionally:

TFTP Server IP – the IP address of the TFTP Server on the network that holds firmware images for updating the wireless handsets. If this feature is configured (not set to 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255), either through Static IP configuration, through using DHCP option 66 (TFTP Server), or the Boot server/next server (siaddr) field, the wireless handset checks for different firmware each time it is powered on or comes back into range of the network. This check takes only a short time and ensures that all wireless handsets in the network are kept up-to-date with the same version of firmware.

Note: It does not matter if the firmware version on the TFTP Server is newer or older. If the versions are different, the wireless handsets download the firmware from the TFTP Server.

OAI Server IP – the IP address of the WLAN Application Gateway 2246 (if using). If using Static IP configuration, this is simply the IP address of the WLAN Application Gateway 2246. If DHCP is being used, the wireless handset tries DHCP option 152.

Default Gateway and Subnet Mask – used to identify subnets, when using a complex network which includes routers. Both of these fields must be configured (not set to 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255) to enable the wireless handset to contact any network components on a different subnet. They can be configured using Static IP configuration or through DHCP options 3 (Default Gateway) and 1 (Subnet Mask) respectively. Contact the network administrator for the proper settings for the network.

Note: The wireless handsets cannot roam across subnets, since the wireless handsets cannot change their IP address while operational. Ensure that all the APs are attached to the same subnet for proper operation. The wireless handset can change subnets if DHCP is enabled, and the wireless handset is powered off, then back on, when within range of APs on a new subnet.
