Addresses
Specify the IP address for the handset within the WLAN.
You have two options:
• An IP address is dynamically assigned to the handset. For this, the
DHCP Client must be activated at the access point/WLAN router of the
DHCP server and on the handset. The DHCP server (Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol) assigns IP addresses to the network components dynamically.
Please note: The IP address for the handset can change each time you
log in to the WLAN and sometimes while the handset is logged in to
the WLAN. You will find the current IP address in the header on each
Web page.
To activate the DHCP Client on the handset, click on the option Enable.
You then do not need to enter any further details for the addressing in
the WLAN. The settings for the WLAN router are used for the routing
and the preferred DNS server.
You can check the current IP address on the handset - see the user guide for the handset on the product CD.
• A static IP address is assigned to the handset.
In this case you need to deactivate the DHCP Client on the handset.
This can be done by clicking on the option Disable.
The Web page is reloaded. You must specify the address information
for the handset described in the following section in the fields on the
Web page.
Entering static IP address and additional address information
The following details must correspond to the settings on the WLAN router.
Handset IP Address
When you specify the IP address of the handset, you should use an address
from an address block that is reserved for private use. This is generally the
range 192.168.0.0 – 192.168.255.254.
If the subnet mask 255.255.255.0 (see above) is set, then the first three
parts of the static IP address must be identical for all subscribers to your
WLAN.
Enter the IP address for your handset that is set at the WL AN router.
Subnet Mask
You should use 255.255.255.0 for the mask. If necessary, check the setting
at the WLAN router.

Network scan
If you are within the transmission range of the access point for which you
wish to create a profile, click on the Scan button. The handset then
searches for access points within its receiving range. The SSIDs of the
access points that can be reached and for which "SSID visible" is set are
displayed in the SSID Scan list.
Where available, select the SSID of the access point (router) you require. It
is copied into the Network Name (SSID) field. The radio channel used by
the access point is entered in the Channel field. The other fields in the Web
page are already filled in with default values. If necessary, you can adjust
the default settings via the Admin menu.
If the access point's SSID is not in the list because the access point is outside
the handset's receiving range or its SSID is not visible, you must configure
the WLAN access manually.
Configuring WLAN access
You must enter the following details in the fields on the Web page:
Network Name (SSID)
State the access point's SSID. The handset needs the WLAN's network name
to register with the access point of the WLAN (e.g. WLAN router).
The following settings are only possible when loading the Web page via the
Admin menu. Only change the default settings if you know that this is
necessary. If necessary, make a note of the default values.
Channel
Your WLAN router/access point communicates with the handset on a
particular radio channel. If there are several wireless networks within the
same transmission range (e.g. if you neighbour also operates a wireless
network), then different radio channels should be used. In Channel you
must select the radio channel that is also set at the WLAN router/access
point.
If you have selected the WLAN router/access point via the SSID Scan list,
the channel used by the WLAN router is already set.
Output Power (in %)
Specify the transmission power the handset is to use when transmitting
along the connection to the access point. The maximum permitted transmission power is 100 mW or 20 dBm (default setting). You can decrease the
transmission power, e.g. if you are always within range of the access point.
23
Menu Status
Tr a ns fe r M od e
Specify whether data is to be transmitted within the WLAN in accordance
with Standard IEEE 802.11b (only 802.11b) or whether you wish data
transmission to be possible both in accordance with IEEE 802.11b and with
IEEE 802.11g (Mixed Mode).
The important difference between the two standards is the transmission
rate: in the case of IEEE 802.11g this is almost 5 times faster. If the units in
the WLAN use different standards, then you should leave the default
setting Mixed Mode.
If IEEE 802.11gst is set as the fixed value at the access point or WLAN router
for the Transfer Mode then you must set Mixed Mode here.
Transmission Rate
Specify the speed at which data is to be transmitted in the WLAN. The transmission rate is measured in data units per unit of time (Mbit/s). The Trans -
mission Rate depends on the selected Transfe r Mode. The possible
transmission rates for the set Transfer Mode are shown in the list.
You should leave the default set to Auto.
Fragmentation Threshold (Value range: 256-2346 in Bytes)
Specify the size at which voice packets are to be fragmented. Fragmentation into smaller packets is used to improve the throughput of data in the
WLAN when the network is very busy.
Select a value between 256 and 2346 bytes. The default value of 2346
Bytes means no fragmentation.
RTS/CTS Threshold (Value range: 1-2347 in Bytes)
Specify the minimum packet size (in bytes) for which an RTS (Request To
Send) is to be sent. Smaller packets are transmitted straight to the access
point without an RTS.
The RTS/CTS threshold (Request to Send/Clear to Send) is used in WLANs
where there are many subscribers to avoid packets colliding (multiple
WLAN subscribers transmitting to the access point at the same time).
Before sending a data packet the handset sends an RTS to the access point.
The data is only sent if it receives a CTS from the access point. Other WLAN
subscribers can tell by the CTS that the access point is busy.
Specify a packet size between 1 and 2347 bytes. For the default value of
2347 bytes the RTS/CTS threshold is deactivated.
Activating the threshold can lead to a deterioration in the data
throughput!
24
Menu Status
Roaming Threshold (Value range: 0-100 in %)
If, to improve the range, the WLAN includes several access points with the
same SSID and the same radio channel, the handset can switch between
the access points without interrupting the connection. I.e. if the handset is
too far from one access point it should establish a connection with the next
access point in the WLAN.
To do this, in the Roaming Threshold field specify a minimum value for the
reception strength of signals from the access point. If the reception
strength for the currently connected access point falls below this value, the
handset searches for another access point with better connection quality
and establishes a connection with this access point. The maximum signal
strength for an access point is limited to 100 mW (20 dBm).
Preamble Type
A preamble is placed in front of every data packet in a WL AN and is used by
the receiver to synchronise with the sender's cycle time. You can send a
short or long preamble. When the preamble is long the synchronisation is
less susceptible to error. When the preamble is short the data throughput is
greater. Not all WLAN devices support both types of preamble.
The WLAN standards IEEE 802.11 require that long preambles are
supported.

WLAN Security
Navigation: Admin > Network > Profile Selection > New / Edit > WLAN
Security
Most WLANs are protected against unauthorised access and against "eavesdropping". For this reason the handset has to provide authentication when
logging into the WLAN (at the access point). In addition, data exchanged
via radio connections is usually encrypted. You must store both the
encryption procedure and the key used on the handset so that it can
communicate with the access point and other WLAN subscribers.
Specify on this Web page the data the handset needs for accessing the
network (authentication) and for encrypted data exchange in the WLAN.
These parameters are usually defined in the access point (WLAN router).
Encryption protects data exchange within the WLAN, not data
exchange with Ethernet networks or with the Internet.
25
Menu Status
Encryption
Your handset supports non-encrypted data transmission and encrypted
data transmission with WEP, WPA and WPA-PSK methods of encryption. For
WPA and WPA-PSK the encryption algorithm TKIP is used.
Open the Encryption list and select the method of encryption that is used.
Depending on the selected method of encryption, additional fields appear
in which you have to state the key or password.
The values you enter must coincide with the security settings configured on
the access point/WLAN router.
None
None of the data in the WLAN is encrypted when transmitted.
WPA-PSK
The WPA-PSK procedure (WI-FI Protected Access with Pre-Shared Key) uses
subscriber-specific keys. These are generated from a Pre-Shared Key and the
MAC address of the device concerned and automatically changed at
periodic intervals (rekeying interval). The complex TKIP algorithm is used
for the encryption. The Pre-Shared Key is defined at the access point/WLAN
router and is the same for all WLAN subscribers.
You must enter the following:
–Encryption Type
The TKIP method of encryption is set.
– Pre-Shared Key
Enter the Pre-Shared Key of the access point/WLAN router for generating the key. If you enter a Pre-Shared Key in ASCII format it can be
between 8 and 63 characters long. If you enter a Pre-Shared Key in
hexadecimal format it must be exactly 64 characters long.
WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is the standard encryption for WLAN
networks. Here th e same key is used by all subscribers to the WL AN and the
access point/WLAN router for encrypting and decrypting data. WEP distinguishes between 64 and 128 bit encryption.
You must enter the following:
– WEP Mode
Specify the WEP key length configured in the access point/WLAN
router by clicking on the relevant option.
– WEP Key
Enter the WEP key configured in the access point/WLAN router. The
key can be entered in ASCII or hexadecimal format. In ASCII format
the characters 0 to 9 and A to Z, plus the special characters in the ASCII character set, are permitted. In hexadecimal format the characters 0 to 9 and A to F are permitted.
26
Menu Status
For a WEP Mode of 64 bits the key must consist of 5 ASCII characters
or 10 hexadecimal characters.
For a WEP Mode of 128 bits the key must consist of 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal characters.
Please note that the WEP key needs to be changed at regular intervals!
– Authentication Mode
Set the mode that is also set at the access point/WLAN router.
Click on the option Shared Key if the WEP key is also used for au-
thentication in the WLAN, i.e. the handset can only log in to the
WLAN if it passes the correct key.
Click on the option Open System if the WEP key is only used for data
encryption and not for authentication.
WPA
WPA can only be set via the Admin menu.
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) offers security through encryption with
dynamic keys. The dynamic keys are exchanged using the authentication
protocol EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) when a connection/
session is established. WPA therefore also requires authentication with EAP.

Authentication
If access to the WLAN is protected, the handset has to provide authentication when logging in. You need to store the necessary data, login details
(user name), password and, where applicable, certificate, in the handset.
The data must be known to the access point.
The standard 802.1x uses the EAP security protocol. Your handset supports
EAP with the two security distributions LEAP and TLS.
Certificates required for the EAP TLS authentication procedure
(WLAN client certificate and WLAN root certificate if necessary) must
be transferred to the handset before the profile is created (see
Æ Certificates).
Open the Authentication list.
• Select None if access to the WLAN is not protected. The default setting for WPA-PSK encryption is None.
• Select 802.1x if access to the WLAN is protected. The default setting
for WPA encryption is 802.1x.
For Authentication = 802.1x the following fields appear in which you must
enter the data required for access.
EAP Type
Select th e E AP authen tic at io n pro ce du re th at is to b e u se d by clicking on the
relevant option.
EAP LEAP is a procedure whereby the handset (client) has to identify itself
at the access point/WLAN router. For this the handset requires a Login
Name and Password.
With EAP TLS authentication is carried out via an authentication server. In
addition to Login Name and Password, the handset must transfer another
Certificate (client certificate) during login. A certificate is a file which
contains information that is relevant for authentication.
You can set the authentication procedure in such a way that the authentication server also has to identify itself with the handset with its own certificate (see below, Validate Server Certificate).
Login Name / Password
Enter the Login Name and Password for WLAN access in the appropriate
fields.
Certificate (only for EAP Type = TLS)
Enter the client certificate that the handset is to transfer when logging in to
WLAN (see Æ Certificates). Using the client certificate, the authentication
server checks the client access authorisation.
Open the Certificate list. The list contains all the client certificates you
have stored on the handset. Select the (client) certificate for the WLAN
access.
28
Menu Status
Validate Server Certificate (only for EAP Type = TLS)
If you activate the Validate Server Certificate option, the handset checks
the validity of the server certificate received. For this check, the corresponding root certificate must be saved in the handset (see Æ Certificates).

Audio Settings
Navigation: Admin > Audio Settings
The values for the voice quality are set at the factory to ensure the voice
quality is generally acceptable with the minimum possible use of resources
(bandwidth). You should therefore only change the preset values if the
voice quality seems to you to be too poor or if you wish to reduce the
bandwidth required at the expense of the voice quality (e.g. for parallel
connections to the Internet). Increasing the voice quality is usually also
associated with an increase in the bandwidth required.
The voice quality for VoIP is largely influenced by the execution time for the
voice packets.
The execution time determines the delay between the sender speaking and
the recipient receiving what has been said. It is composed of the following
parts:
• Time the used Codec needs to digitise the voice, packetise it in data
packets and, if necessary, to compress the packets,
• Time the voice packets spend in the Internet, essentially consisting of
the time the voice packets wait in the buffer of the IP node when there
is heavy traffic (see also Æ Quality of Service(QoS): Protocol Settings).
You can make the following settings:
Codec
Codec is a procedure used to digitise and packetise (if necessary also
compress ) the analogue voice before sending, and to decode the digital
data on receipt, i.e. translate it into analogue voice. The choice of Codec is
a compromise between voice quality, transmission speed, and the
necessary bandwidth.
Both parties involved in the telephone connection (caller/sender and
recipient) must use the same Codec. The Codec is negotiated between the
sender and the recipient when establishing a connection.
Select from the Codec list the Codec that the handset is to suggest when
establishing a connection.
You can choose between the following Codecs supported by your handset:
– G.711 preferred (normal quality)
The voice quality is very good, roughly corresponding to that of an
ISDN fixed network connection. The necessary bandwidth is 64 Kbit/
s per voice connection. As there is little compression, the delay
caused by coding/decoding is only 0.125 ms.
– G.723 preferred (low bandwidth) /
G.723 only (low bandwidth)
The voice quality is below that in mobile phone networks. The necessary bandwidth is 24 or 40 Kbit/s per voice connection. The delay is
about 30 ms.
31
Menu Status
– G.729A/B preferred (low bandwidth) /
G.729A/B only (low bandwidth)
The voice quality is better than for G.723. The necessary bandwidth
is about
8 Kbit/s per voice connection. The delay is about 15 ms.
– G.722 preferred (high quality)
The voice quality is very good. The necessary bandwidth is 64 Kbit/s
per voice connection. The delay is about 1,625 ms.
Procedure when establishing a connection:
If you select a Codec as "preferred", the handset suggests the Codec each
time it tries to establish a connection. The "preferred" Codec is only used if
the receiving device accepts this particular Codec.
If the receiving device does not accept the Codec (e.g. because it does not
support it), a different Codec (lower quality) is negotiated. The connection
is established by using the negotiated Codec.
If you select a Codec as "only", the handset requests the Codec when establishing a connection. The connection is not established if the receiving
device does not accept this Codec. An appropriate message will be
displayed on the handset.
RTP Packet Size
Specify the size of the data packet. You can choose between 10 ms, 20 ms,
30 ms and Automatic. Large packets result in a longer execution time
(poorer voice quality) but less network utilisation. Small packets result in a
shorter execution time (improved voice quality) but greater network utilisation.
Silence Suppression
When Silence Suppression is activated hardly any data packets are transmitted from the sender during pauses in the conversation. This saves
bandwidth and therefore improves transmission capacity.
In some circumstances, however, Silence Suppression means a deterioration in the voice quality. Slight background noises are also always sent
along with the voice, and when Silence Suppression is activated these are
replaced at the recipient's end by "synthetic" noise. This can irritate the
recipient.
Click on the option to activate Silence Suppression (marked with an arrow)
or to deactivate it.

packet. The DSCP field (Differentiated Service Code Point) is used for this.
This is evaluated in the routers and gateways on the route to the recipient
and the data packet is handled accordingly.
Whether or not a higher quality of service class will actually improve the
quality of your telephone connection depends on the IP network behind
your access point.
You c an spec i f y a DSCP Class for Voice and a DSCP Class for Signalling.
To do this, select the required class in both lists.
A distinction is made between the following quality of service classes:
Best Effort
The data packets are not preferred. This means: lowest priority level and
therefore longer execution times with high network utilisation and random
packet losses. It is possible to change the packet sequence.
Best Effort generally offers acceptable quality of service with minimal use
of resources.
Assured Forwarding 1 ... Assured Forwarding 4
Four priority classes are defined for assured forwarding. The class with the
lowest priority is Assured Forwarding 1.
Resources (data throughput/bandwidth, buffer store) are made available to
the classes independently of one another. In the event of an overload,
surplus data packets are rejected (packet loss). Within each class there are
three levels of packet loss probability (drop preference levels): Low,
Medium, High. If the data packets in a class are in a queue, data packets
with a High drop preference level are rejected first. A low drop preference
level therefore means better quality of service within the class. You specify
the drop preference level in the Drop Preference Levels for Voice or Drop
Preference Levels for Signalling field. The field will appear when you
select one of the assured forwarding classes.
Expedited Forwarding
Data packets are forwarded with the highest priority. A minimum
bandwidth is guaranteed (irrespective of network utilisation).

Certificates
Navigation: Admin > Certificates >
You need certificates for network access if authentication with EAP Type
TLS is set up in the WLAN (see Æ WLAN Security). Certificates are files
containing information for authentication in the WLAN.
A distinction is made between client, server and root certificate.
The (WLAN) client certificate identifies the handset. The handset must
transfer the client certificate during login. You must therefore save it on the
handset.
Using the client certificate, an authentication server checks the access
authorisation for the WLAN. If the check turns out to be positive, the
handset is connected to the WLAN and the authentication server sends its
server certificate to the handset.
The handset can (optional) use the server certificate to check whether it has
logged to the correct authentication server (in the correct WLAN), see
Æ WLAN Security, Validate Server Certificate. The handset requires the
(WLAN) root certificate to carry out the check. If the check needs to be
carried out, you will also need to transfer the WLAN root certificate to the
handset.
• In the navigation area, select WLAN Client if you wish to transfer a client certificate from your PC to the handset or wish to delete a client
certificate stored on the handset.
• In the navigation area, select WLAN Root if you wish to transfer the
root certificate from the PC to your handset or wish to delete a server
certificate stored on the handset.
• In the navigation area, select VPN , if you wish to transfer the VPN certificate from the PC to your handset or wish to delete a VPN certificate
stored on the handset.
Before the corresponding access profiles are created, you must
transfer the certificates to the handset.
Importing a new certificate and updating certificates

You can use ping tests to check whether it is possible to establish a
connection between the handset and a server in the Internet or WLAN.
The ping test returns a test status from which you can tell whether there is
a connection to the server or not.
If there is no connection, check the accuracy of the stated server address. If
you have addressed the server by its DNS name, check whether there is any
connection with the DNS server or whether the stated name is known to
the DNS server.
A ping test takes up to 5 sec. During this time you cannot reach the
Web Interface. Your connection to the Web Interface is restored as
soon as the test has been concluded.
Starting the ping test
Check the connection to a server of the active profile as follows:
Select a server from the Ping Test to list. The list contains all the servers
whose IP addresses or names are stored in the handset. Click on the
relevant Ping button.
You can use the ping test, for example, to check whether the names and
addresses you have entered are correct. When the test is complete the test
status is shown.
If you discover that the connection to a server cannot be established, then
also check the addresses of the servers through which the connection to
the tested server is established (gateways, and when a server name is
entered also the DNS server etc.).
Ping test on an additional server
You can use the ping test, for example, to check whether the DNS name of
a server is being correctly converted into IP address by the DNS server.
In the Other Ping Test, enter the DNS name or IP address of the server (see
Æ Addressing a server).
