OAI on/off

Nortel Networks Open Application Interface (OAI) enables the wireless handset to connect with the optional WLAN Application Gateway 2246. This device allows third-party computer applications to display alphanumeric messages on the wireless handset display and take input from the wireless handset keypad.

If a WLAN Application Gateway 2246 is installed in the system, OAI may be optionally enabled in each wireless handset. Select whether the wireless handset should attempt to connect to the WLAN Application Gateway 2246 by choosing either the Enable or Disable options in this menu. By default, OAI is disabled.

If OAI is enabled, and a WLAN Application Gateway 2246 IP address is available to the wireless handset (either through DHCP or Static IP configuration), then the wireless handset communicates with the WLAN Application Gateway 2246 at power-on, and then periodically during the time the wireless handset is powered on.

If a WLAN Application Gateway 2246 is not installed at the site, leave the OAI feature disabled to preserve network bandwidth and battery life.

Admin PW

The optional Admin Password (PW) controls access to the administration functions in the Admin Menu of the wireless handset. Configure the password in each wireless handset for which controlled access is desired. Wireless handsets are shipped without an Admin password.

Note: If this option is selected on a wireless handset that already has a configured password, and the Exit softkey is pressed with no entry, the password is erased. This means that the wireless handset will not require an Admin Password to access the Admin Menu.

Tip: Record the wireless handset Admin password and store it in a safe place. If the password is lost or forgotten, contact Nortel Networks Technical Support.

Downloading the WLAN handset firmware

All WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 are shipped with a generic firmware load that allows them to associate to a WLAN and download their functional firmware from a TFTP Server. The wireless handsets do not function properly without downloading their appropriate firmware.

Note: It is the customer’s responsibility to download the firmware upgrades from the Nortel Networks web site to the TFTP Server.
