Syslog Server planning

A Syslog Server listens for incoming syslog messages on UDP port 514 and then processes the messages according to local administrative procedures. Usually the syslog messages are logged for subsequent review by the system operator. A number of devices used within a handset wireless conﬁguration are capable of sending messages to a Syslog Server.

The Syslog Server can be any RFC 3164-compliant log server. You can conﬁgure the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245, WLAN Application Gateway 2246, WLAN APs 2220/2221/2230/2231, and the WLAN Handsets 2210/2211/2212/6120/6140 to generate syslog messages. For information about conﬁguring syslog messages, see the documentation for the Wireless Security Switches and WLAN APs. For information about conﬁguring syslog messages on the WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245, see "Conﬁgure the network" (page 103).

There are numerous third-party Syslog Servers available. You can use any RFC 3164-compliant Syslog Server.

Access point planning

APs utilize radio frequencies to transmit signals to and from the wireless handsets.

It is essential to know where to install the APs to provide effective coverage for wireless handset use. It is necessary to verify that coverage is available where it is needed. The ﬁrst step is to deﬁne exactly where the coverage is needed, which requires a site survey.

Recommendation

A site survey must be performed before installing a wireless LAN. A site survey is also recommended when an existing network structure is modified or when physical changes are made to a site.

Nortel recommends the use of the Nortel Site Survey Tool to perform the site survey.
