Server 2 IP – the IP address of the secondary Nortel Networks device. Currently, the wireless handset does not make use of this information. If using Static IP configuration, this is simply the IP address of the device. If DHCP is being used, the wireless handset tries to obtain the device’s IP address and port information using the following DHCP options:

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

Server 2 Port – the port number used by the secondary Nortel Networks device to communicate with IP phones. Currently, the wireless handset does not make use of this information. If using Static IP configuration, consult the device’s documentation for port numbers. If DHCP is being used, the wireless handset tries to obtain the device’s IP address and port information using the following DHCP options: 43, 128, 144, 157, 191, and 251.

ESSID

Select the option that enables the wireless handset to acquire APs with the correct ESSID each time it is turned on.

With regard to Automatic Learn options, Broadcast ESSID must be enabled in the APs for ESSID learning to function (or contact the AP vendor for specifics). Overlapping wireless systems complicate the use of ESSID learning, as the wireless handset in an overlapping area could receive conflicting signals. If this is the situation at the site, use Static Entry or Learn Once in an area without overlapping ESSIDs.

Learn Once – allows the wireless handset to scan all ESSIDs for a DHCP Server or TFTP Server, or both. Once either is found, the wireless handset retains the ESSID from the AP with which it associates at that point. When overlapping wireless systems exist, the Learn Once feature allows the wireless handset to use only the ESSID established the first time at all subsequent power-ons. This ESSID is retained by the wireless handset until the ESSID option is reselected.

Learn Always – allows the wireless handset to automatically learn the ESSID at each power-on or loss of contact with the wireless LAN (out of range). This may be useful if the wireless handset will be used at more than one site.

Static Entry – if the APs do not accept Broadcast ESSID, or if there are overlapping wireless systems in use at the site, enter the correct ESSID manually.

License Management

License Management enables selection of the VoIP protocol that the site is licensed to download and run. The UNIStim Protocol to use for the WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 is 010. Any other protocol causes the wireless handset to malfunction.

After selecting the correct protocol for the site, Nortel Networks recommends upgrading the firmware for the wireless handsets. See WLAN Handset 2210/2211 firmware upgrade on page 31.
