Setup and Administration–NetLink Wireless Telephone
(With SpectraLink Radio Protocol and NetLink Telephony Gateway)
4. License
Management
The NetLink Wireless Telephone system supports a number of different IP protocol
integrations. All PTB8xx series Wireless Telephones are shipped from SpectraLink with
a generic software load that allows them to associate to a wireless LAN and download
their functional software from a TFTP server.
The Wireless Telephones will not
function properly without downloading appropriate software.
The following details the process to properly configure NetLink Wireless Telephone and
download software via over-the-air file transfer.
4.1 Requirements
•
A wireless LAN must be properly configured and operational through the use of
802.11b wireless access points.
•
NetLink Telephony Gateway must also be connected to your network and
completely operational, and the handset must be registered to it.
•
The NetLink Telephony Gateways have a TFTP Server and must be available on
the network in order to load the appropriate software into the Wireless
Telephones. Most installations choose to take advantage of the TFTP Server that
accompanies the NetLink Telephony Gateway, making a separate TFTP Server
unnecessary.
•
Finally, ensure that the Battery Pack on the Wireless Telephone is fully charged.
4.2 Configuration
Process
1. Download the latest NetLink Wireless Telephone software from
http://www.spectralink.com/service/software.html
2. Load the latest version of the PTB8xx SRP code and place it on the TFTP Server
and ensure the TFTP Server is started. The two files that are needed must be
named
pdt06c.bin
and
phintl.bin
.
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 appropriate options are set for the
TFTP Server. See section 3 “NetLink Wireless Telephone Configuration” for
detailed configuration instructions.
4. Ensure the Wireless Telephone 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. See section 3 “NetLink Wireless Telephone Configuration”
for detailed configuration instructions.
