Overview
Wireless Installation and Configuration Guide Page 5
IP Office [15-601082] Issue [1] (1 June 2006)
Multiple AVPP
Multiple AVPP environments are those which have more than one AVPP in the same subnet in order to
accommodate larger systems and higher call capacity.
In a system comprised of multiple AVPPs using an IP protocol, a master AVPP must be identified. The
master AVPP server must have a static IP address. The wireless phones and the other AVPPs locate
the master by using a static IP address, DHCP, or DNS.
The loss of a non-master AVPP does not significantly affect the operation of the remaining AVPPs.
However, the loss of the master AVPP results in a loss of all communication between all of the AVPPs.
This also means that the loss of the master AVPP results in the loss of all active calls and wireless
phones cannot check-in until communication with the master is re-established.
Note
10, 20 and 100 AVPPs will not operate together in a network. The network must consist of all 10,
all 20 or all 100 AVPPs.
The Timing Function
In the IP PBX environment, AVPPs provide both the connection or "gateway" to the IP PBX for the
wireless phones and the "timing" function for active calls. This "gateway" function is distributed across
the AVPPs.
The number of active AVPPs is determined dynamically. Whenever AVPPs are added to or removed
from the system, the distribution of "timing" function for active calls, as well as the "gateway" function, is
affected.
Internal Gatekeeper
A gatekeeper is required in certain H.323 protocol systems. Currently, a gatekeeper is not supported.
Wireless Installation and Configuration Guide
Wireless Installation and Configuration Guide Page 6
IP Office [15-601082] Issue [1] (1 June 2006)
AVPP Capacity
The AVPP requires a Cat. 5 cable connection between its network port and the Ethernet switch. The
AVPP auto-negotiates to the type of port on the Ethernet switch and supports 10Base-T, 100Base-T, full-
duplex and half-duplex port types.

Overview
Wireless Installation and Configuration Guide Page 7
IP Office [15-601082] Issue [1] (1 June 2006)
Overview of Wireless Phone
The 3600 series wireless phone is a mobile handset for workplace IP phone systems. The wireless
phone operates over an 802.11b wireless Ethernet LAN providing users with a wireless Voice over IP
(VoIP) extension. By integrating with IP Office, wireless phone users are provided with high-quality
mobile voice communications throughout the workplace. The wireless phone gives users the freedom to
roam throughout the workplace while providing all the features and functionality of an IP desk phone.
The 3600 series wireless phone provides a wireless extension to IP Office. The wireless phone resides
on the wireless LAN with other wireless devices using Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) radio
technology. The handset radio transmits and receives packets at up to 11Mb/s.
A wireless phone must be administered on IP Office for the specific features and lines to be accessed by
the wireless phone. After the handset is registered, it receives its configuration information from IP
Office.
The wireless phone supports Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) as defined by the 802.11 specification.
Avaya offers the product with both 40-bit and 128-bit encryption. WEP increases the security of the
wireless LAN to a level similar to a wired Ethernet LAN.
Notes
IP multicast addresses are used by the 3626 wireless phone Push-to-Talk (PTT) feature. This
requires that multicasting be enabled on the subnet used for the wireless phones, Avaya Voice
Priority Processor (AVPP) server, and telephony gateways.
Routers are typically configured with filters to prevent multicast traffic from flowing outside of
specific domains. The wireless LAN can be placed on a separate VLAN or subnet to reduce the
effects of broadcast and multicast traffic from devices in other network segments.
Requirements
1. A wireless LAN must be properly configured and operational through the use of 802.11b wireless
access points.
2. A TFTP server must be available on the network in order to load the appropriate software into the
wireless phones. For detailed instructions for loading software on wireless phones, see License
Management.
3. IP Office must be connected to the customer network and be completely operational.
4. The AVPP, which controls the QoS on the wireless LAN for the wireless phones, must be on the
same subnet as the wireless phone and have the proper versions of software. To download the
latest AVPP software, visit www.spectralink.com/softwareupdates.
5. Add a station on IP Office for each wireless phone. You will need to administer each wireless
phone as a 4606 IP phone.
Note
For IP Office 403, 406V1, 406V2 and 412 the Voice Compression Module (VCM) is required. The
IP Office Small Office Edition (SOE) has built-in VCM Channels for either 3 or 16 simultaneous
VoIP calls (depending on which SOE you have).
Configure your wireless phone to ensure that it is associated with the wireless LAN, has the appropriate
software and is registered to IP Office.
Note
The AVPP and all access points must be on the same subnet.

System Components
3600 Series Wireless Phones
As they move throughout the building, users can carry wireless phones to make and receive calls. The
wireless phones are to be used on-premises; they are not cellular or satellite phones. They are
connected to the facility's existing phone system and to the gateway or IP gateway. Just like wired
phones, they can receive calls directly, receive transferred calls, transfer calls to other extensions and
make outside and long distance calls (subject to the restrictions applied in your facility).
The wireless phones can operate on an 802.11b wireless network and can operate at a transmission
rate of up to 11Mb/s.
3616 Wireless Phone
The 3616 wireless phone is a lightweight, durable handset specifically designed for mobile
workplace use within a facility using IP Office and 802.11b access points in a wireless LAN. The
phone supports five predefined feature keys and a mixture of six programmable line and feature
keys. Among other features, the wireless phone can receive calls directly, receive transferred
calls, transfer calls to other extensions, make conference calls, and make outside and long
distance calls (subject to the restrictions applied in your facility.)
3620 Wireless Phone
The 3620 wireless phone is a sturdier version of the 3616 phone and is ideally suited for
healthcare environments. The handset has the same features as the 3616 phone.
3626 Wireless Phone
The 3626 wireless phone offers a durable design with push-to-talk capabilities as well as the
same features as the 3616 phone.
The wireless phones use direct sequence spread spectrum radio technology (DS) to transmit audio
packets over wireless LAN access points that support the Avaya Wireless PC card.
Avaya Voice Priority Processor
Avaya Voice Priority Processor (AVPP) is an Ethernet LAN appliance that works with access points to
provide Quality of Service (QoS) on the wireless LAN. All packets to and from the wireless phones, pass
through the AVPP and are encapsulated for prioritization as they are routed to and from IP Office. AVPP
is fully compliant with the IEEE802.11 and 802.11b standards.
AVPP is required for QoS because the current IEEE802.11b wireless LAN standard does not provide a
mechanism for differentiating audio packets from data packets.
The following AVPP servers are available to meet customer needs:
AVPP100: Serves 80 calls simultaneously.
AVPP020: Serves 20 powered-on handsets.
AVPP010: Serves 10 powered-on handsets.

IP Office [15-601082] Issue [1] (1 June 2006)
IP Office
The call-processing component of the Avaya IP telephony solution.
The following IP Office units (equipped with VCM) are supported:
Avaya IP Office 403
Avaya IP Office 406 V1/V2
Avaya IP Office 412
The following IP Office Small Office Edition units (equipped with built-in VoIP) are supported:
Avaya IP Office - Small Office Edition 3 VoIP
Avaya IP Office - Small Office Edition 16 VoIP
Access Points
Supplied by either Avaya or third party vendors, access points provide the connection between the wired
Ethernet LAN and the wireless (802.11b) LAN. Access points must be positioned in all areas where
wireless phones will be used. The number and placement of access points will affect the coverage area
and capacity of the wireless system. Typically, the requirements for use of wireless phones are similar to
that of wireless data devices.
The wireless phones must connect to access points that use AVPP. For a complete list of access points
supported, go to:
www.spectralink.com/consumer/resources/wifi_compatibility.jsp
Ethernet Switch
Interconnects multiple network devices, including the AVPP, IP Office, IP Phones and the access points.
Ethernet switches provide the highest performance networks, which can handle combined voice and
data traffic, and are required when using the wireless phones.
Although a single Ethernet switch network is recommended, the wireless phones and the AVPP can
operate in larger, more complex networks, including networks with multiple Ethernet switches, routers,
VLANs and/or multiple subnets. However, in such networks, it is possible for the Quality of Service
(QoS) features of the AVPP to be compromised and voice quality may suffer. Any network that consists
of more than a single Ethernet switch should be thoroughly tested to ensure any quality issues are
detected.
Note
The 3600 series wireless phones cannot roam from one subnet to another. If routers and
multiple subnets are in use, the wireless phones must only use access points attached to a single
subnet, or be powered off and back on to switch to a different subnet.
Overview
Wireless Installation and Configuration Guide Page 11
IP Office [15-601082] Issue [1] (1 June 2006)
Router
A router is an optional component in the wired Ethernet LAN infrastructure that separates a wired LAN
into segments so that network traffic is restricted to those segments that are directly involved in the
communication. Installation of a network router is recommended in larger networks, where there may be
significant network traffic not related to the wireless LAN. A router will isolate the wireless LAN from the
associated wired LAN so that they are not impacted by each others traffic. The gateways, access points
and their associated Ethernet switch must all be on the same side of the router.
Administrative Computer
A computer is required for setup and maintenance of the AVPP. This computer can be temporarily
connected directly to the component or to the network, a dedicated computer is not required. Some
installations use a laptop to configure and maintain system components.
TFTP Server
A TFTP server is required in the system to distribute software to the wireless phones and AVPP. TFTP
may be on a different subnet than IP Office, AVPP, access points and/or wireless IP phones. AVPP 10,
20 and 100 do not support IP Office internal TFTP server.
To download Avaya's free TFTP server, go to www.avaya.com/support.
Note
An AVPP is required on each subnet. The access points must be on the same subnet(s) as the
AVPP(s).
IP Multicast Addresses
IP multicast addresses are used by the 3626 wireless phone system. This requires that multicasting be
enabled on the subnet used for the wireless phones and AVPP servers. Routers are typically configured
with filters to prevent multicast traffic from flowing outside of specific domains. The wireless LAN can be
placed on a separate VLAN or subnet to reduce the effects of broadcast and multicast traffic from
devices in other network segments.

AVPP Configuration
Introduction
During initial setup of the AVPP, the IP address is established and the maximum number of active calls
per access point is set. Optionally, you may enter a hostname and a location for software updates via
TFTP.
Note
Where SVP is documented in this section, AVPP applies.
Connecting to the AVPP
The initial connection to the AVPP must be made via a serial connection to establish the AVPPs IP
address. After the IP address is established, connection to the AVPP can be done via the network using
Telnet. It is recommended that the basic setup actions occur while the serial connection is made.
Connecting via the Serial Port
1. Using a DB-9 female, null-modem cable, connect the AVPP to the serial port of a terminal or PC.
2. Run a terminal emulation program (such as HyperTerminal) or use a VT-100 terminal with the
following configuration:
Bits per second: 9600
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None
3. To display the AVPP login screen, press Enter.
4. Enter the default login: admin and default password: admin. These are case sensitive. The
NetLink SVP-II System menu is displayed.

Connecting via Telnet
Note
Telnet can only be used after the AVPPs IP address is configured.
The Telnet method of connection is used for routine maintenance of the Avaya server for both local and
remote administration, depending on your network.
To connect via Telnet, run a Telnet session to the IP address of the AVPP. Once you connect and log in,
the NetLink SVP-II System menu is displayed.
AVPP System Menu
When you connect via the serial port or via Telnet (for the first time) the following main menu is
displayed:
The screen displays:
System Status - menu for viewing error messages, status of operation and software code
version. The 170 series software is required in the Alcatel IP environment. You can check the

is also where you may optionally establish a hostname and enter the IP address of the location of any
software updates.
For more information about installing software updates via TFTP, see Software Maintenance.
From the main menu, scroll to Network Configuration and press Enter. A screen similar to the
following is displayed:
The screen displays:
IP Address - enter the IP address of the AVPP, defined by your system administrator.
Hostname (optional) - change the default host name, if desired. This is the name of the AVPP to
which you are connected, for identification purposes only. You cannot enter any spaces in this
field.
SVP-II TFTP Download Master - this entry indicates the source of software updates for the
AVPP. Valid source locations are:
NONE - disables.
IP Address - the IP address of the network TFTP server that will be used to transfer
software updates to the AVPP.
DNS Server and DNS Domain - these settings are used to configure domain name services.
Consult your system administrator for the correct settings. These can also be set to DHCP. This
will cause the DHCP client in the AVPP to attempt to automatically get the correct setting from
the DHCP server. The DHCP setting is only valid when the IP address is also acquired using
DHCP.
WINS servers - these settings are used for Windows Name Services. Consult your system
administrator for the correct settings. These can also be set to DHCP. This will cause the DHCP
client in the AVPP to attempt to automatically get the correct setting from the DHCP server. The
DHCP setting is only valid when the IP address is also acquired using DHCP.
Note
When the name services are set up correctly, the AVPP can translate hostnames to IP
addresses. Using Telnet, it is also possible to access the AVPP using its hostname
instead of the IP address.
AVPP Configuration

IP Office [15-601082] Issue [1] (1 June 2006)
Workgroup - as set in WINS.
Syslog Server - logging can be set to Syslog or NONE. If Syslog is set, a message is sent to the
Syslog server when an alarm is triggered.
Disable Telnet service - prevents Telnet access into the AVPP server. Reset the AVPP server
for the change to take effect. Upon reset the Telnet protocol server is not started.
The AVPP must be reset in order to set the configuration options. If the AVPP is in Maintenance Lock
and you press Esc, you will be prompted to reset the AVPP. At the reset prompt, press Y (Yes).
To manually reset AVPP, select Reset in the SVP-II Configuration screen and then press Y (Yes).
Send All
In an IP system with multiple AVPPs, the SendAll option is provided to speed configuration and ensure
identical settings. The S=SendAll option allows you to send that configuration parameter to every AVPP
on the LAN.
SendAll can only be used after the IP address is established on each AVPP via the serial connection. If
you anticipate identical settings across the LAN, set the IP address and custom hostname (if desired) for
each AVPP using the initial serial connection. Connect via the LAN and use SendAll to set identical
configuration options for all AVPPs.
If SendAll is to be utilized in your system, all passwords must be identical.
Warning
Do not change the password at the initial configuration if SendAll is desired.
Use the default password and change it globally, if desired, after a LAN connection is established for all
AVPPs.
If independent administration of each AVPP is desired, the passwords may be set at initial configuration.
Note
The IP address of the master AVPP can be changed in this menu. After rebooting the system,
you can change alias IP addresses in each of the other AVPP servers without error.

AVPP Administration
Introduction
Whenever an AVPP is removed from the system, wireless phones that are using the system will be
affected. If the removal of the AVPP is intentional, the administrator should lock and idle the system,
prior to removing an AVPP. Whenever an AVPP is added to the system, the change is seamless and
does not affect the wireless phone calling functionality.
Adding an AVPP
In the IP PBX environment, a new AVPP is detected within two seconds of being added to the system
(booted/configured/connected). When detected, any wireless phone that is not active in a call will
immediately be forced to check out and check in again. Any wireless phone in a call will immediately
switch to the AVPP that should provide its 'timing' function. This switch should not be noticeable to the
user since it is similar to a normal handoff between access points. When the call is ended, the wireless
phone will be forced to checkout and checkin again.
Removing an AVPP
When a AVPP is removed from the system, it is detected within two seconds. Wireless phones not active
on calls are immediately forced to check out and check in again.
For wireless phones active in calls, two possible scenarios can occur:
If the AVPP that was removed was providing the 'gateway' function for the wireless phone, then
the call is lost and the wireless phone is forced to check in again.
If the AVPP that was removed was providing the 'timing' function for the call, then call will switch
to the AVPP that should now provide the 'timing' function.
Note
During the two seconds while the loss of the AVPP is being detected, the audio for the call will be
lost.
Changing the Master AVPP
In the event the master AVPP loses communication with the network, the wireless phone system will fail.
All AVPPs will lock and all calls will be lost and no calls will be able to be placed. Therefore, if the master
AVPP needs replacing, be sure that the system can be brought down with minimal call interruption. Be
sure to reset all AVPPs after the master has been replaced. If the IP address of the master is changed, it
must be changed in all AVPPs.

IP Office Integration Factors
Voice Messaging Access
To access voicemail, dial *17. For verification, check with your system administrator.
CODECS
The wireless phones are compatible with the G.711 and G.729a/ab codecs. There is no setting required
on the wireless phone. If the wrong codec is used, there will be no voice path.
DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a standardized protocol that enables clients to be
dynamically assigned with various configuration parameters, such as an IP address, subnet mask,
default gateway, and other critical network configuration information. DHCP servers centrally manage
such configuration data, and are configured by system administrators with settings that are appropriate
for a given network environment. The wireless phone will use the following DHCP options, if DHCP use
is enabled:
Option Meaning
3 Default Gateway
6 DNS Server
15 Domain Name
66 TFTP Server
151 Avaya Voice Priority
Processor
176 Avaya Specific Options
Note
The above DHCP options are available if you are using a Win2K DHCP server on your network.
TFTP
The wireless phone uses TFTP to update its software over the 802.11 wireless LAN. The 3600 series
wireless phones and the AVPPs, only support an external TFTP server with IP Office.
IP Office Configuration
Wireless Installation and Configuration Guide Page 27
IP Office [15-601082] Issue [1] (1 June 2006)
DNS
Domain Name System (DNS), an industry-standard protocol, locates computers on an IP-based network.
IP networks rely on number-based addresses to move information on the network. However, users are
better at remembering friendly names than number-based addresses, so, it is necessary to translate
user-friendly names into addresses that the network can recognize. The wireless phone will use DNS to
automatically translate names into IP addresses for these components: TFTP server, AVPP and IP
Office.
Entering an Extension and Password
Several conditions (new phone, Extension Error, Password Error, and Extension in use) can result in the
wireless phone asking the user for a new extension and password. The entry process is described
below. When a new extension or password is being entered, the asterisk (*) key can be used to back up
and correct an error.
The wireless phone will display:
Ext. =XXX
#=OK New =
At this point, a new extension can be entered, or if # is pressed, the wireless phone will retain the current
extension.
After a new extension is entered, press # to continue.
The wireless phone will then display:
Password = ********
# = OK
A new password can be entered at this time, or if # is pressed, the wireless phone will continue with its
current password.
After a new password is entered, press # to continue.
Extension Error
If the IP Office unit (or all, if there is more than one) does not recognize the extension that the phone is
trying to register with, the wireless phone will display:
Extension Error
This will last 5 seconds, and then the wireless hone will ask the user to enter a new extension and
password.
Wireless Installation and Configuration Guide
Wireless Installation and Configuration Guide Page 28
IP Office [15-601082] Issue [1] (1 June 2006)
Password Error
If the wireless phone has an incorrect password, the display will show:
Password Error
# to continue
To enter a new extension and password, press # to continue.
Extension Override
IP Office will detect when a wireless phone tries to register with the same extension as any phone that is
already registered to that extension. If this happens, the wireless phone will display:
Extension in use
# to continue
To continue, press #.
If the user chooses to continue on with the override information, the wireless phone will register with the
override bit set. Any phone currently registered with the given extension will be unregistered, and any
activity on the currently registered phone will be stopped. If that phone is in a call, it will be dropped.
If the user does not want to override the existing extension, either enter a different extension and
password, or simply power off the wireless phone.
Note
If two wireless phones are assigned to the same extension, the IP Office unit will not properly
resolve the registration conflict due to the presence of the AVPP. Both wireless phones may fail
to operate properly.
Retry/Restart
Some errors will result in the following display, once # is pressed to continue:
* to Retry
# to Restart
To immediately retry registering with IP Office, press *. To restart the wireless phone, press # (which will
take about 20 seconds)

Wireless Phone Installation
Introduction
This section contains information on the installation and configuration of the wireless phone on IP Office.
IP Office acts as a routing mechanism for all wireless phones on its system. Information is routed from
the phone to IP Office and to the AVPP.
The AVPP is the Quality of Service (QoS) mechanism that is implemented in the wireless phone and
access point to enhance voice quality. AVPP gives preference to voice packets on the wireless medium,
increasing the probability that all voice packets are transmitted efficiently. These voice packets are then
re-routed through IP Office and back to the wireless phone.
The IP Office units currently supported with the wireless phones:
Avaya IP Office 403
Avaya IP Office 406 (V1 and V2)
Avaya IP Office 412
Avaya IP Office Small Office Edition can be optioned as an 802.11b access point (WiFi pcmcia card
and IP400 ACCESS POINT RFA license, to activate the access point software) but without QoS. The
access point is configurable via IP Office Manager.
Other wireless solutions are available for the IP Office Small Office Edition.
Notes
The setup for the 3600 series wireless phones requires four major steps:
1. The configuration of the AVPP.
2. The configuration of IP Office.
3. The configuration of the Access Points.
4. The configuration of the 3616/3620/3626 wireless phones.
With IP Office, the access point resides on the LAN and is configured based on the
manufacturers guidelines and manuals. For a list of access points supported, go to
www.spectralink.com/consumer/resources/wifi_compatibility.jsp.

IP Address
There are two modes in which the wireless phone can operate: DHCP enabled or static IP. Select the
mode for operation from the IP Address menu:
* Use DHCP
Will use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to assign an IP address each time the wireless
phone is turned on. If DHCP is enabled, the wireless phone also receives all other IP address
configurations from the DHCP server.
Static IP
A static IP address allows you to manually set a fixed IP address. If selected, the wireless phone will
prompt for the IP address of each of the configurable network components. When entering addresses,
enter the digits only, including leading zeroes. No periods are required.
Regardless of the mode in which the wireless phone is operating, the following components must be
configured.
Phone IP
Phone IP refers to the IP address of the wireless phone. This is automatically assigned if DHCP is used.
If using static IP configuration, you must obtain a unique IP address for each phone from your network
administrator.
AVPP IP
AVPP IP refers to the IP address of the AVPP. If using static IP configuration, this is simply the IP
address of the AVPP.
Note
The AVPP must be statically configured to have a permanent IP address. If DHCP is being used,
the wireless phone will try the following, in order: the DHCP option 151, then a DNS lookup of
SLNKSVP2 if the DHCP options 6 (DNS Server) and 15 (Domain Name) are configured.
The following components may be configured optionally:
Wireless Installation and Configuration Guide
Wireless Installation and Configuration Guide Page 38
IP Office [15-601082] Issue [1] (1 June 2006)
TFTP Server IP
TFTP Server refers to the IP address of a TFTP server on the network that holds software images for
updating the wireless phones. If this feature is configured (not set to 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255) with
either static IP configuration or using DHCP option 66 (TFTP server), or the Boot server/next server
(siaddr) field, the wireless phone will check for newer software each time it is powered on or comes back
into range of your network. This check takes only a second and ensures that all wireless phones in your
network are kept up-to-date with the same version of software.
OAI Server IP
OAI Server refers to the IP address of the NetLink OAI gateway. If using static IP configuration, this is
the IP address of the NetLink OAI Gateway. If DHCP is being used, the wireless phone will try the DHCP
option 152.
Default Gateway and Subnet Mask
Default Gateway and Subnet Masks are used to identify subnets, when using a complex network which
includes routers. Both of these must be configured (not set to 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255) for the
wireless phone to contact any network components on a different subnet. They can be set using either
static IP configuration or via DHCP options 3 (default gateway) and 1 (subnet mask) respectively.
Contact your network administrator for the proper settings for your network.
Note
The wireless phones cannot roam across subnets, since they cannot change their IP address
while operational. Ensure that all your access points are attached to the same subnet for proper
operation. The wireless phone can change subnets if DHCP is enabled, and the wireless phone
is powered off then back on when within range of access points on the new subnet.
Call Server IP
The IP address of the IP Office unit. If using static IP configuration, this is the IP address of the IP Office
unit.
Wireless Phone Configuration
Wireless Installation and Configuration Guide Page 39
IP Office [15-601082] Issue [1] (1 June 2006)
ESSID
Select the option that will enable the wireless phone to acquire access points with the correct ESSID
(Extended Service Set ID) each time it is turned on.
Note
Broadcast ESSID must be enabled in the access points for ESSID learning to function. Refer to
the configuration note for your access point or call your access point vendor for specifics.
Overlapping wireless systems complicate the use of ESSID learning as the wireless phone in an
overlapping area could receive conflicting signals. If this is the situation at your site, use Static
Entry or Learn Once in an area with overlapping ESSIDs.
* Learn Once
The Learn Once option allows the wireless phone to scan all ESSIDs for a DHCP server and/or TFTP
server. Once either is found, the wireless phone retains the ESSID from whichever access point it
associates with at that point. When overlapping wireless systems exist, the Learn Once feature allows
the wireless phone to use only the ESSID established at first learn at all subsequent power on. This
ESSID is retained by the wireless phone until the ESSID option is re-selected.
Learn Always
The Learn Always option allows the wireless phone 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 phone will be
used at more than one site.
Static Entry
If your access points do not accept broadcast ESSID or if there are overlapping wireless systems in use
at the site, enter the correct ESSID manually:
1. On the keypad, press the first digit/letter of the ESSID. The digit is displayed.
2. Press the first digit/letter of the ESSID again, to scroll through the letters associated with that key.
For example:
If you press 2 repeatedly, you will see 2, A, B, and C, a, b, and c.
The following table shows keys that you use to enter non-numeric characters or other characters
not represented on the keypad.
To Enter Press

Cisco FSR (Fast Secure Roaming)
A proprietary security mechanism devised by Cisco Systems to overcome some shortcomings in the
802.11 Standard WEP encryption, without impacting the ability of the wireless phones to roam from one
access point to another with seamless voice. Cisco FSR requires advanced configuration of the Cisco
access points in your site. See your Cisco representative for detailed WEP documentation on configuring
your access points and other required security services on your wired network. To configure Cisco FSR
on your wireless phone, you must enter a Radius server username and password into each phone.
Username
Enter a username that matches an entry on your Radius server. Usernames are alphanumeric
strings, and can be entered using the same technique as described above for ESSID entry.
Password
Enter the password that corresponds to this username.
OAI On/Off
The Open Application Interface (OAI) enables third-party computer applications to display alphanumeric
messages on the wireless phone display and take input from the wireless phone's keypad. Refer to the
Open Application Interface (OAI) Specification (Version 1.2) documentation for information about
administering the OAI gateway and the services it can provide.
If you have an OAI gateway installed in your system, OAI may be optionally enabled in each wireless
phone. You may select whether the wireless phone should attempt to connect to the OEM OAI gateway
by choosing either Enable or Disable in this menu.
If OAI is enabled, and an OAI IP address is available to the phone (either via DHCP or static IP

Introduction
The wireless phone system supports a number of different IP protocol integrations. All wireless phones
are shipped from Avaya with generic software loaded, which allows the phones to associate to a wireless
LAN and download their functional software from a TFTP server.
Note
The wireless phone will not function properly without downloading appropriate software.
Requirements
A wireless LAN must be properly configured and operational through the use of 802.11b.
IP Office must also be connected to your network and completely operational.
A TFTP server must be available on the network in order to load the appropriate software in to.
Ensure that the battery pack on the wireless phone is fully charged.
Configuration Process
1. Download the latest 3600 series wireless IP phone IP software from:
www.spectralink.com/softwareupdates
2. Load the latest version of the 3600 series wireless phone code and place it on the TFTP server
and ensure the TFTP server is started. Ensure the files are unzipped in the root directory of the
TFTP server.
3. If statically assigning IP addresses, ensure that the IP Address, TFTP Server IP, Subnet Mask,
and Default Gateway information are accurate in the Admin menu. If using a DHCP server,
ensure that the DHCP option is set. See Wireless Phone Configuration for detailed instructions.
4. Ensure the wireless phone has properly configured ESSID and Reg Domain information within
the Admin menu. If you are accepting broadcast ESSIDs at your access points, the handset will
automatically learn the ESSID information when powering on.
5. Using the Admin menu on the wireless phone, ensure the License Mngt menu option is set to
009. This ensures the handset will check for the proper software files each time it powers on.
6. Power cycle the wireless phone.
The code will now download to the handset. The status bar will increment fully across the display
for each function that is being performed in the download process. Upon completion of the
update process, the handset will re-boot with the new firmware.
7. After code has been downloaded for the first time, the wireless phone will ask for an extension
and password. Once these have been entered, the phone will register with IP Office.
Note
For future software upgrades, simply update the files that are stored on the TFTP server. Each
time the wireless phone is powered up, it will check with the TFTP server to ensure it has the
proper software version. If a new version of code is downloaded, the currently entered extension
and password will be preserved.

IP Office [15-601082] Issue [1] (1 June 2006)
Feature Programming
Introduction
The 3600 series wireless phone emulates the 4606 phone. This phone supports line appearances and
has the following keys:
Six programmable keys.
Dedicated Mute, Hold, Transfer, Conference and Redial softkeys.
Adjustable speaker volume control.
Adjustable ringer volume control.
All phone functions and messaging features are supported if possible. Functions that require the use of
the volume keys are not supported, nor are Speakerphone functions.
Assigning Functions
The first five feature keys are available as softkeys. FCN keys can be programmed as features (e.g. Call
Park, Call Ride etc.) via IP Office. If the wireless phone is associated with a desk station, the button
features administered for the desk station are assigned to the remaining FCN keys.
The keypad mapping for each wireless phone is administered through the IP Office administration
software (for example, Avaya MultiVantage Configuration Manager). Programmable keys are accessed
by pressing LINE on the wireless phone, followed by the appropriate digit key.
Assigned lines can be accessed by the key sequence LINE + a digit, where the digit is the order
in which the line has been received from the IP Office unit. This is true regardless of which button
is associated with the line.
For example:
If line 1 is assigned to Programmable Key 1, LINE + 1 will access line 1. If line 2 is then assigned
to Programmable Key 4, LINE + 2 will access line 2.
Change to feature programming will take effect after the wireless phone is powered off and back
on again.
If an Open Application Interface (OAI) is operational, one or more function key sequences will be
assigned in the OAI configuration and they will override any function sequence established here.

Certifying the Installation
Introduction
Conduct a preliminary Site Survey Mode test according to the directions given in this section. Note any
areas where coverage is conflicting or inadequate. Note any system difficulties and work with your
wireless LAN and/or LAN system administrator to determine the cause and possible remedy. For
information on possible sources of difficulties, see Troubleshooting.
Site Certification
Note
The installer should not leave the site before performing installation verification.
These tests must be performed in typical operating conditions, especially if heavy loads occur. Testing
sequence and procedure is different for every installation. Generally, you should organize the test
according to area and volume, placing numerous calls to others who can listen while you perform
coverage tests. Note any areas with excessive static or clarity problems and report it to an Avaya
engineer.
The coverage test will also require you to put the wireless phone in Site Survey mode and walk the
entire coverage area to verify all access points.
Important Note
The installation is not complete until these certification steps have been performed. Do NOT hand
out wireless phones at a site that has not been certified.
Solving Coverage Issues
Coverage issues are best resolved by adding and/or relocating access points.
Overlap issues may be resolved by re-assigning channels to the access points or by relocating the
access points.
Wireless Installation and Configuration Guide
Wireless Installation and Configuration Guide Page 52
IP Office [15-601082] Issue [1] (1 June 2006)
Site Survey Mode
Test signal strength in the covered area by performing a Site Survey. Put a wireless phone in Site
Survey Mode (see Wireless Phone Configuration) and walk the entire coverage area while viewing the
display.
The FCN key toggles between the three coverage modes described below. The wireless phone will
remain in Site Survey Mode until it is powered off. When testing is complete, and to power off the
wireless phone, press Power Off/End Call.
Numbers racing across the wireless phone display indicate access point information is being obtained. A
Waiting message indicates the system is not configured properly and the wireless phone cannot find any
access points.
Detect dBm Coverage
As you walk the perimeter, the two-line display will show the top four access points that the wireless
phone can contact in a code as illustrated below.
XXX1 YY XXX2 YY
XXX3 YY XXX4 YY
-dBm
XXX1 through XXX4 are the last four digits of the access point's MAC address. The primary
access point (the access point which had the strongest signal to this wireless phone) displays
first, followed by the three access points with the next strongest signals.
YY is the power level in dBm at which this wireless phone heard the associated access point.
Although shown as a positive number, YY represents negative dBm and lower numbers
represent stronger signals. For example, a displayed value of 40 indicates 40dBm, and is
therefore a stronger signal then a display of 50 (which indicates 50dBm). At least one access
points reading should be stronger than -70 dBm in all areas.
Note any areas that have inadequate dBm readings.
Detect Overlap or Conflicts
To toggle to the Site Survey function that shows the channel number of the access points, press FCN.
Use this information to detect overlaps or conflicts in access point signaling.
XXX1 YY XXX2 YY
XXX3 YY XXX4 YY
Chnl
XXX1 through XXX4 are the last four digits of the access points MAC address.
ZZ is the channel number that the access point is using.
Note any areas that have access points that are in contention for the same channel.
It is preferable that no overlaps exist anywhere in your facility. If that is not possible, then any location
that shares two access points with the same channel should also show at least two access points with
stronger signals that do not conflict.

Introduction
3600 Series Wireless Phones
The wireless phones use proprietary software programs. The software versions that are running on the
wireless phones can be displayed during power on by holding down Power On/Start Call.
Avaya or its authorized dealer will provide information about software updates and how to obtain the
software (for example, downloading from a web site).
AVPP
The AVPP uses proprietary software programs. The software versions that are running on the system
components can be displayed via the System Status screen.
Avaya, or it authorized dealer, will provide information about software updates and how to obtain
software, for example; downloading from a web site.
At startup, the AVPP uses TFTP to check the software version it is running against the version in the
TFTP location. If there is a discrepancy, the AVPP will download the version in the TFTP location. For
more information about using TFTP, see the Setup and Administration guide for your vendor's IP system.
Upgrading Wireless Phones
After software updates are obtained, they must be transferred to the appropriate location in the LAN to
update the code used by the wireless phones.
The wireless phones allow over-the-air transfer of software updates from the designated TFTP server to
the wireless phones. The downloading function in the wireless phone checks its software version every
time the wireless phone is turned on. If there is any discrepancy the wireless phone immediately begins
to download the update.

Wireless Phone Troubleshooting
Introduction
Wireless phones can exhibit transmission problems in several ways. They can cease functioning
properly, display error messages, or display incorrect data. When using and troubleshooting wireless
phones, consider the problem sources described in this section, to determine the best method of
approaching any specific situation.
Access Point Problems
Most, but not all, wireless phone audio problems have to do with access point range, positioning and
capacity. Performing a Site Survey as described in the Setup and Maintenance document can isolate the
access point causing these types of problems. If the wireless phone itself is suspected, conduct a
parallel Site Survey with a wireless phone that is known to be properly functioning.
In Range/Out of Range
Service will be disrupted if a user moves outside the area covered by the wireless LAN access points.
Service is restored if the user moves back within range. If a call drops because a user moves out of
range, the wireless phone will recover the call if the user moves back into range within a few seconds.
Capacity
In areas of heavy use, the call capacity of a particular access point may be filled. If this happens, the
user will hear three chirps from the wireless phone. The user can wait until another user terminates a
call, or move within range of another access point and try the call again. If a user is on a call and moves
into an area where capacity is full, the system attempts to find another access point. Due to range
limitations, this may be the same as moving out of range.
Transmission Obstructions
Prior to system installation, the best location for access points for optimum transmission coverage was
determined. However, small pockets of obstruction may still be present, or obstructions may be
introduced into the facility after system installation. This loss of service can be restored by moving out of
the obstructed area, or by adding access points.
Configuration Problems
Certain problems are associated with improper configuration of either IP Office or the wireless phone.
Configuration problems are generally corrected by changing the configuration on IP Office or on the
wireless phone. See IP Office Configuration and Wireless Phone Configuration for specific configuration
steps.
There may also be incorrect programming of the access point. See the Configuration Note for the access
point in use at the site.
If IP Office registration fails, note any error messages on the display including which line icons are
active. This information will help with the problem resolution.

Wireless Phone Status Messages
Wireless phone status messages provide information about the wireless phone's communication with the
access point and host phone system. The following table summarizes the status messages, in
alphabetical order.
Message Description Action
3 chirps The wireless phone is not able
to communicate with the best
access point, probably
because that access point has
no bandwidth available.
None. This is only a warning, the
call will handoff to the best access
point once it becomes available.
ASSERTxxx.c
Line yyy The wireless phone has
detected a fault from which it
cannot recover.
Record the error code so it can be
reported. Turn the wireless phone
off then on again. If error persists,
try registering a different wireless
phone to the phone port. If error
still persists, contact Technical
Support and repeat the error.
Bad Config Some needed configuration
parameter has not been set. Check all required wireless phone
configuration parameters for valid
settings.
Bad ESSID The wireless phone is
configured for static ESSID
(as opposed to Learn once
or Learn always and no ESS
ID has been entered.
Enter an ESSID in the
configuration settings or change to
one of the "Learn modes.
Charging... The wireless phone is
charging in the desktop
charger.
No action needed.
Charge Complete The wireless phone is now
fully charged. No action needed.
Checking Code The wireless phone is
contacting the TFTP Server to
determine if it has a newer
version of software that should
be downloaded.
None, this message should only
last for approximately one second.
If message remains displayed,
power off and contact customer
support for a replacement phone.
Checking DHCP IP The wireless phone is
retrieving DHCP information
from the DHCP server.
None. This is information only.
CRC Code Error The software which has been
TFTP downloaded has a bad
redundancy code check.
Try the download again, it is
possible the software was
corrupted during download. If the
error repeats, check that the
download image on the TFTP
server is not corrupted.
Code Mismatch! The software loaded into the
wireless phone is incorrect for
this model phone
Replace the software image on
the TFTP server with software that
is correct for the phone model.

DHCP Error 1 The wireless phone cannot locate
a DHCP server. It will try every 4
seconds until a server is located.
DHCP Error 2 The wireless phone has not
received a response from the
server for a request to an IP
address. It will retry until a server
is found.
DHCP Error 3 The server refuses to lease the
wireless phone an IP address. It
will keep trying.
DHCP Error (1-4)
DHCP Error 4 The server offered the wireless
phone a lease that is too short.
The minimum lease time is 10
minutes but Spectralink
recommend at least one hour
minimum lease time. The wireless
phone will stop trying. Re-
configure the server and power
cycle the wireless phone.
DHCP Lease Exp The wireless phones DHCP
lease has expired, and the call
(if any)cannot continue.
The wireless phone failed to
renew its DHCP lease, either
because the DHCP server is not
running, or because the
configuration has been changed
by the administrator. The wireless
phone will attempt to negotiate a
new lease, which will either work,
or change to one of the above
DHCP errors (1-4).
DHCP NACK error A NACK (Negative
ACKnowledge)was received
from the DHCP server.
The DHCP lease currently in use
by the wireless phone is no longer
valid, which forces the wireless
phone to restart. This problem
should resolve itself on the restart.
If it does not, the problem is in the
DHCP server.
DO NOT POWER
OFF The wireless phone is in a
critical section of the software
update.
None. Do not remove the battery
or attempt to power off the phone
while this is displayed. Doing so
may require the phone to be
returned to Avaya to be
recovered.
Duplicate IP The wireless phone has
detected another device with
its same IP address.
If using DHCP, check that the
DHCP server is properly
configured to avoid duplicate
addresses. If using static IP,
check that the wireless phone was
assigned a unique address.
