2. NetLink Wireless Telephone Overview

NetLink 8000 Series Wireless Telephones are mobile handsets for workplace telephone systems. The handset operates over an 802.11a/b/g wireless Ethernet LAN providing users a wireless voice over IP (VoIP) extension. By seamlessly integrating with the NetLink Telephony Gateway and the facility’s telephone system, handset users are provided with high-quality mobile voice communications throughout the workplace. The handset gives users the freedom to roam throughout the workplace while providing all the features and functionality of a desk phone.

The handsets reside on the wireless LAN with other wireless devices using directsequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio technology. The handset radio transmits and receives packets at up to 54Mb/s.

All SpectraLink products use the company’s LinkPlus integration technology to connect with various digital switch platforms. Using LinkPlus technology, handsets emulate digital telephone sets to deliver advanced capabilities such as multiple line appearances and LCD display features. See the PBX for information about mapping the PBX features to the handset.

LinkPlus Interface Guide

2.1 SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP) and Quality of Service

SVP is the SpectraLink quality of service (QoS) mechanism that is implemented in the handset and an access point (AP) to enhance voice quality over the wireless network. SVP gives preference to voice packets over data packets on the wireless medium, increasing the probability that all voice packets are transmitted efficiently and with minimum or no delay. SVP is fully compatible with the IEEE 802.11 standards.

The NetLink SVP Server is an Ethernet LAN device that works with the APs to provide QoS on the wireless LAN. Voice packets to and from the handsets are intercepted by the NetLink SVP Server and encapsulated for prioritization as they are routed to and from an IP telephony server or gateway. See

Installation, Configuration, and Administration

device.

When the system employs four or fewer NetLink Telephony Gateways without an NetLink SVP Server, the NetLink Telephony Gateway(s) provide SVP’s QoS. In this configuration, the handsets are limited to a maximum of 2Mb/s. If the 11Mb/s transmission rate is desired, a NetLink SVP Server must be added to the system. Note that if any 2Mb/s NetLink handsets are in use (PTB500’s) the NetLink 8000 Series Wireless Telephones will automatically limit speed to 2Mb/s to maintain compatibility.

NetLink SVP Server:

2.2 NetLink Wireless Telephone Security

NetLink Wireless Telephones support basic Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) as part of the

802.11e protocol. If the AP supports WMM, the handset automatically discovers and uses it. WMM does not replace the NetLink SVP Server as described in the following paragraph. WMM settings must be configured on the NetLink Telephony Gateway and on the NetLink SVP Server.

PN: 72-1305-00-A.doc Page 6

SpectraLink Corporation Configuration and Administration–NetLink 8000 Series Wireless Telephone NetLink Telephony Gateway and SpectraLink Radio Protocol

NetLink Wireless Telephones also support the 802.11i protocol including Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2) pre-shared key (PSK). As vendors introduce APs that are eligible to become Wi-Fi Certified for WPA-PSK and/or WPA2-PSK, SpectraLink will determine their compatibility with the handsets and include them on the

NetLink Wireless Telephone WLAN Compatibility List.

The NetLink 8000 Series Wireless Telephones support Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) as defined by the 802.11 specification. SpectraLink offers the product with both 40-bit and 128-bit encryption.

The latest software versions are required to support the features described

 

in this document. See section 4

IP multicast addresses are used by the NetLink 8030 Wireless Telephone. This requires that multicasting be enabled on the subnet used for the NetLink Wireless Telephones, SVP 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 virtual LAN (VLAN) or subnet to reduce the effects of broadcast and multicast traffic from devices in other network segments.

Software License and Protocol Management.

2.3 Quick Start Overview

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

802.11 wireless APs.

2. A NetLink Telephony Gateway must be available on the network and the

handset must be registered to it in order to load the appropriate software into the handsets. Most installations choose to take advantage of the TFTP server that accompanies the NetLink Telephony Gateway, making a separate TFTP server unnecessary.

3. The NetLink Telephony Gateway or NetLink SVP Server, which controls 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.Download updates to the NetLink SVP Server software (if the NetLink SVP Server is installed) per

2.7 Handset Modes

Standby Mode (on-hook)

In standby mode, the handset is waiting for an incoming call or for the user to place an outgoing call. The extension number is shown on the display and there is no dial tone. In this mode, the handset is conserving battery power and wireless LAN bandwidth.

When an incoming call occurs, the handset enters a transitional state and will ring until the call is answered by pressing the START key or the END key is pressed to silence the ringing.

Active Mode (off-hook)

To place a call, press the START key. This transitions the handset to active off-hook mode. There is a dial tone, the handset is in communication with the PBX, and the display shows information as it is received from the PBX. The user may place a call or press a softkey or the FCN or LINE key to access additional operations.

The handset is also in the active mode when an incoming call is answered.

When an incoming call occurs during an active call the handset will play the second call ringing sound until the call is answered, the caller hangs up, or the call transfers to voicemail. If END is pressed, the first call is terminated and the handset reverts to a full ring.

The active modes utilize the most bandwidth and battery power. To conserve these resources and allow the handset to receive new calls, return the handset to the standby mode when a call is completed by pressing the END key.

Configuration Menu Mode

When user preferences are being configured in the Config menu, the handset is on but is not active. It cannot receive calls while in the Config menu.

Push-to-talk (PTT) Mode

The NetLink 8030 Wireless Telephone utilizes channels for incoming and outgoing radio communication. While PTT is active, the handset is in PTT mode. It can receive regular phone calls in this mode. When a regular phone call is answered, the handset enters active mode.

Messaging Mode

If text messaging functions have been programmed, as in a nurse call system, the handset is able to receive text messages. While these messages are being accessed, the handset is in messaging mode. Incoming calls will ring with the second call ringing sound.

Network Config IP Address

There are two modes in which the handset can operate: DHCP enabled or Static IP. Select the mode for operation from the IP address menu:

* Use DHCP Will use DHCP to assign an IP address each time the handset is

turned on. If DHCP is enabled, the handset also receives all other IP address configurations from the DHCP server.

Static IP Allows you to manually set a fixed IP address. If selected, the handset

will prompt for the IP addresses for each configurable network component. When entering addresses, enter the digits only, including leading zeroes. Do not enter punctuation.

The speakerphone option must be programmed in the NetLink Telephony Gateway for it to function as an off-hook softkey option. See

Telephony Gateway: Installation, Configuration, and Administration

NetLink

for more

information.

If the speakerphone is disabled in the Admin menu, the Spkr softkey will not appear during standby. However, if it has been programmed in the NetLink Telephony Gateway, the Spkr softkey will appear during active mode but it will be non-functional.

Regardless of the mode in which the handset is operating, the following components must be configured:

is used. If using Static IP configuration, you must obtain a unique IP address for each handset from your network administrator.

Default Gateway and Subnet Mask Used to identify subnets, when using a

complex network which includes routers. Both of these must be configured either with an IP address under Static IP (not set to 000.000.000.000 or

255.255.255.255) or with DHCP for the handset to contact any network components on a different subnet. If configured on the DHCP server, use option 3 for the Default Gateway and option 1 for the Subnet Mask. Contact your network administrator for the proper settings for your network.

NetLink Wireless Telephones cannot roam with uninterrupted service



between subnets unless specific LAN components are present. Certain AP/Ethernet switch combinations establish a layer-2 tunnel across subnets that enables the handsets to roam. Without this capability, any call in progress will be dropped when the user moves out of range and the handset must be power cycled in order to resume functionality in the new subnet area.

Ensure that all your APs are attached to the same subnet for proper operation. The handset can change subnets if DHCP is enabled and the handset is powered off then back on when within range of APs on the new subnet.

4. Software License and Protocol Management

The NetLink Wireless Telephone System supports a number of different IP protocol integrations. All NetLink 8000 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 handsets may not function properly without downloading appropriate software.

The following details the process to properly configure handsets 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

802.11a/b/g wireless APs.

• The 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 handsets. Most installations choose to take advantage of the TFTP server that accompanies the NetLink Telephony Gateway, making a separate TFTP server unnecessary.

• Software versions required:

Component Version

NetLink Telephony Gateway 108 or higher

NetLink SVP Server 17x.028 or higher

OAI Server MOG 600 54.032 or higher

OAI Server MOG 700 82.017 or higher

• Finally, ensure that the Battery Pack on the handset is fully charged.

4.2 Configuration Process

1. Download the latest NetLink Wireless Telephone software from

http://www.spectralink.com/softwareUpdates

2. Place the latest version of the NetLink 8020 or 8030 Wireless Telephone SRP

code on the TFTP server and ensure the TFTP server is started. The five files that are needed must be named: usb downloader pd14udsp.bin functional filename pd14csp.bin phintl filename pi1400sp.bin ota downloader pd14odsp.bin config file slnk_cfg.cfg

3. See

NetLink Telephony Gateway: Installation, Configuration, and Administration

to set the TFTP server information and/or use the NetLink Telephony Gateway’s built-in TFTP server.

PN: 72-1305-00-A.doc Page 23

SpectraLink Corporation Configuration and Administration–NetLink 8000 Series Wireless Telephone NetLink Telephony Gateway and SpectraLink Radio Protocol

4. Use the Handset Administration Tool to set up the configuration of each

handset to meet all essential requirements. If not using the Handset Administration Tool, ensure the following parameters are correctly set in the Admin menu for each handset: See section 3

Configuration

• If statically assigning IP addresses, ensure that the Phone IP, Subnet Mask,

and Default Gateway information are accurate. If using a DHCP Server, ensure that the DHCP option is set.

• Ensure security settings are properly programmed.

5. Power cycle the handset.

6. The SRP 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 and the filename will display. Upon completion of the update process, the handset will re-boot with the new firmware.

SpectraLink Corporation Configuration and Administration–NetLink 8000 Series Wireless Telephone NetLink Telephony Gateway and SpectraLink Radio Protocol

5. Testing the Handsets

Verify proper registration and operation of each handset by performing the following tests on the handset in an active wireless area.

1. Power on the handset by pressing END. You will see a series of messages

displayed as the handset acquires the system. The handset should display the user extension or dashes if no extension is programmed. Any error messages should clear.

2. Press the START key. The extension number should clear and you should hear

dial tone. On some digital systems, depending on how the telephone system is programmed, you may have to select a line to get dial tone. Place a call and listen to the audio quality. End the call by pressing the END key.

3. Place a call to the handset and verify ring, answer, clear transmit and clear receive

audio.

4. Use the softkeys to verify all softkey programmed features on the handset.

5. Press the END key. Any line indicators should turn off and the extension number

display will return.

If any of these steps fails to operate as described, refer to section 9 for corrective action.

6. Diagnostic Tools

Run Site Survey, Diagnostics Enabled and Syslog Mode are three diagnostic tools

provided to assist the wireless LAN administrator in evaluating the functioning of the NetLink 8000 Series handset and the system surrounding it. Diagnostic Tools are enabled in the Admin menu.

6.1 Run Site Survey

Site survey is used to evaluate the facility coverage before certifying that an installation is complete. It can also be used at any time to evaluate coverage by testing signal strength, to gain information about an AP, and to scan an area to look for all APs regardless of SSID. The information available through the site survey includes:

• SSID

• Beacon Interval

• Information regarding support of 802.11d, 802.11g, 802.11h and other

802.11 amendment standards as required

• Current security configuration

Start the site survey by selecting Run Site Survey from the Admin menu. The mode starts immediately.

When the test is started, it is by default in “single SSID” mode. When the Any soft key is pressed (softkey A) all APs, regardless of SSID, are displayed and the softkey changes to say MyID. Pressing the MyID soft key will revert to the “single SSID” mode and change the softkey back to Any.

The display would look like the following for the multiple AP mode.

Where:

• 111111 – the last three octets of the on-air MAC address for a discovered

AP.

• 22 – the signal strength for the specified AP.

• 33 – the channel number of the specified AP.

• 444 – the beacon interval configured on the specified AP.

• Any/MyID – softkey to toggle between “single SSID” and “any SSID”

mode.

• Detl/Smry – softkey to toggle between the multiple AP (summary) display,

and the single (detail) displays for each AP.

The following screen shows how the display would look when there are three APs configured with an SSID that matches that of the handset. The first has a signal strength of –28 dbm, is configured on channel 2, with a beacon interval of 100 ms.

modes

• Detl/Smry – softkey to toggle between the multiple AP display (summary),

and the single AP display (detail)

Numbers racing across the handset display indicate AP information is being obtained. A

Waiting message indicates the system is not configured properly and the

handset cannot find any APs.

PN: 72-1305-00-A.doc Page 27

SpectraLink Corporation Configuration and Administration–NetLink 8000 Series Wireless Telephone NetLink Telephony Gateway and SpectraLink Radio Protocol

Solving Coverage Issues

Coverage issues are best resolved by adding and/or relocating APs.

Overlap issues may be resolved by reassigning channels to the APs or by relocating them. See the Troubleshooting section Access Point Problems for more information.

6.2 Diagnostics Enabled

Diagnostics is used to evaluate the overall quality of the link between the handset,

AP, and infrastructure side equipment, such as IP PBX, NetLink SVP Server, and gateways. Unlike Site Survey, Diagnostics is used while the functional code is running, and during a call.

When Diagnostics is enabled in the Admin menu, the handset can display diagnostic screens any time it is in active mode.

The display of information is instigated by pressing the Nav◄ or Nav► key. Only four of the diagnostic counters listed below can be shown at a time. Pressing the Nav keys multiple times will cycle through the various counters and the normal off-hook (IP-PBX) display. The numeric icon at the top of the display indicates what screen number is being displayed. For example: The first time the Nav key is pressed, the 1 icon is shown, and the first four counters are displayed. The next time it is pressed, the 2 icon is shown, and the next four counters are displayed. The counters will be cycled through in this fashion until there are no more counters to be displayed. After all the counters have been displayed, the screen returns to the normal off-hook IPPBX screen.

The information provided by Diagnostics includes:

Screen 1

• Missed receive packet count since power up (MissedRcvCnt)

• Missed transmit packet count since power up (MissedXmtCnt)

• Receive retry count since power up (RxRetryCount)

• Transmit retry count since power up (TxRetryCount)

6.3 Syslog Mode

A syslog server must be present on the network in order for the handset to send the log messages and have them saved. The syslog server will be found with DHCP option 7 if the handset is using DHCP. If static addresses are configured, the syslog server’s IP address can be configured statically in the Admin menu.

If the syslog server address is blank (000.000.000.000 or 255.255.255.255) or



the handset is using DHCP and no option 7 is received from the DHCP server, the handset will not send any syslog messages.

Admin menu options:

• *Disabled – turns syslog off

• Errors – causes the handset to log only events that we consider to be an error

(see below)

• Events – logs all errors plus some other interesting events (see below).

Full – logs all the above plus a running stream of other quality information

•

(see below)

The table below lists the syslog messages and which level of logging will produce them:

7. Certifying the Handsets

Prior to determining that an installation is complete, test the handsets following the sequence given in section 5

Testing a Handset

according to the directions given in section 6

The installation may need some adjustments. 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. See section 9

Troubleshooting

for clues to possible sources of difficulties. If any adjustments are made to the system, re-test the device in the same vicinity to determine if the difficulty is resolved.

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 a SpectraLink service engineer.

The coverage test will also require you to put the handset in Site Survey mode and walk the entire coverage area to verify all APs.

and conduct a site survey mode test

8. Software Maintenance

The NetLink 8000 Series Wireless Telephones use proprietary software programs written and maintained by SpectraLink Corporation. The software versions that are running on the handsets can be displayed during power on by holding down the END button. Firmware Version is also an option on the Config menu.

SpectraLink Customer Service or an authorized dealer will provide information about software updates and how to obtain the software (for example, downloading updates from a website).

Upgrading Handsets

After software updates are obtained from SpectraLink, they must be transferred to the NetLink Telephony Gateway or other TFTP server. See

Gateway

Installation, Configuration, and Administration

update the NetLink Wireless Telephone software in the NetLink Telephony Gateway so that it can then be downloaded into the handsets.

NetLink Wireless Telephones allow over-the-air transfer of software updates from the NetLink Telephony Gateway to the handsets. The download function in the handset checks its software version every time the handset is turned on. If there is any discrepancy the handset immediately begins to download the update.

Normal Download Messages

When the handset is powered on, it displays a series of messages indicating that it is searching for new software, checking the versions, and downloading. The normal message progression is:

Message Description

Checking Code Handset is contacting the TFTP server to determine if it has a newer version of software that

should be downloaded.

Erasing Memory Handset has determined that a download should occur and is erasing the current software from

memory. This message also displays a progress bar. When the progress bar fills the display line the erase operation is complete.

Updating Code Handset is downloading new software into memory. The number icons at the bottom of the

display indicate which file number is currently being downloaded. This message also displays a progress bar. When the progress bar fills the display line the update operation is complete on that file.

When the update is complete, the handset displays the extension number and is ready for use.

9. Troubleshooting

On occasion, you may run into transmission problems due to any number of factors originating from the wireless LAN. NetLink 8000 Series Wireless Telephones can exhibit transmission problems in several ways. They can cease functioning properly, display error messages or display incorrect data. When using and troubleshooting handsets, consider the following problem sources to determine the best method of approaching any specific situation.

9.1 Access Point Problems

Most, but not all, handset audio problems have to do with AP range, positioning and capacity. Performing a site survey as described above can isolate the AP causing these types of problems. If the handset itself is suspected, conduct a parallel site survey with a handset 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 APs. Service is restored if the user moves back within range. If a call drops because a user moves out–of-range, the handset 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 handset. The user can wait until another user terminates a call, or move within range of another AP 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 APs 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 APs.

9.2 Configuration Problems

Certain problems are associated with improper configuration of the NetLink Telephony Gateway, the NetLink Wireless Telephone or the NetLink SVP Server.

For instance, no extension displayed or wrong extension displayed on the handset has no effect on its operation but serves to easily identify it. Other configuration problems, like having incorrect menu items, or inability to connect or access telephone system features, affect the handset’s functioning.

Configuration problems are generally corrected by changing the configuration at the NetLink Telephony Gateway, the NetLink SVP Server or on the handset. See the

NetLink Telephony Gateway: Installation, Configuration, and Administration

document for specific configuration steps. There may also be incorrect programming

PN: 72-1305-00-A.doc Page 35

SpectraLink Corporation Configuration and Administration–NetLink 8000 Series Wireless Telephone NetLink Telephony Gateway and SpectraLink Radio Protocol

of the PBX or AP. See the appropriate

Configuration Note

for the AP in use at the site.

9.3 Infrastructure Problems

Calls ringing on the wrong handset or when multiple handsets are not working often indicate faulty installation. The wires that connect the demarcation (demarc) block to the NetLink Telephony Gateway may be installed incorrectly.

Contact your wireless LAN and/or PBX vendor for more information about troubleshooting infrastructure problems.

9.4 Dial tone Problems

A dial tone problem exists if the handset has no dial tone or if the user is unable to hear the other party’s voice, hears echo or hears dead air. Dial tone problems can be caused by a number of different situations and should be investigated by following these steps:

1. Power on the handset in an active service area. If the handset does not get a dial

tone in an active area, continue with the steps below. If the no dial tone problem is limited to a certain area, see section 9.1

Any initialization or error messages should turn off a few seconds after the handset is powered on.

LinkPlus Integration Guide

Access Point Problems

or the

2. Swap the Battery Pack with a Battery Pack from a functional handset, power the

handset back on and check for dial tone. If this corrects the problem, try recharging the Battery Pack that was removed.

3. Turn the handset off, then on again, and then test again for dial tone. If

functioning, place a call and determine voice quality.

4. While maintaining an active call, walk through several AP areas. If fluctuation

occurs see section 9.1

Access Point Problems

5. Check for alarms on the NetLink Telephony Gateway or the NetLink SVP

Server (via System Status). If there are alarms, see

Installation, Configuration, and Administration or

NetLink Telephony Gateway:

NetLink SVP Server: Installation,

Configuration, and Administration for information.

6. Make sure the handset’s gateway port is connected to a working telephone line.

Check the line at the demarc block. You may need to contact your vendor to perform this check.

7. Check the cabling between the gateway and the demarc block and between the

demarc block and the telephone system ports.

8. Move the handset to a different port location and test again.
