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 SVP Servers, the APs, and their
associated Ethernet switch must all be on the same “side” of the
router.
SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server
The SVP Server manages call network traffic as detailed in this
document.
Administrative computer
An administrative computer is required for setup and maintenance of
the SVP Server. This computer may 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
Required in an IP system to distribute software to the wireless
telephones and SVP Server. May be on a different subnet than the IP
gateway, IP telephony server, and APs.
