The latest software versions are required to support the features described in
this document.

2.2 Quick Start Guide

1. A wireless LAN must be properly configured and operational through the use of

802.11b wireless APs.

2. A TFTP server must be available on the network in order to load the appropriate

software into the handsets. Most installations choose to take advantage of the
TFTP server that accompanies the CallManager, making a separate TFTP server
unnecessary. See Section 5 License Management for detailed instructions for
loading software on handsets.

3. Cisco’s CallManager (Release 3.08 or greater) must be connected to your network

and completely operational.

4. The NetLink SVP Server, which facilitates the QoS on the wireless LAN for the

handsets, must be on the same subnet as the handsets and have the proper
versions of software.

5. Visit

to

download the latest NetLink Wireless Telephone and SVP Server software.

6. Download software: Download the correct NetLink Wireless Telephone

software per Section 4.2 Configuration Process. Ensure the software is properly
loaded on the TFTP server.

7. Download updates to the NetLink SVP Server software per SpectraLink 8000

SVP Server: Administration Guide for SRP Chapter 5, section on Software
Updates
.

8. Configure your handset to ensure that it associated with the Wireless LAN, has

the appropriate software and is registered to CallManager. See Section 5 License
Management
for detailed instructions for loading software onto handsets.



IP multicast addresses are used by the NetLink i640 Wireless Telephone
system. This requires that multicasting be enabled on the subnet used for the
NetLink Wireless Telephones and SVP Server.
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.
