Introduction
SpectraLink's Voice Interoperability for Enterprise Wireless (VIEW)
Certification Program is designed to ensure interoperability and high
performance between SpectraLink 8000 Wireless Telephones and
WLAN infrastructure products. The products listed below have been
thoroughly tested in SpectraLink’s lab and have passed VIEW
Certification. This document details how to configure Siemens HiPath
C10, C100, C1000 Wireless Controllers and 2610 & 2620 access points
(APs) with SpectraLink 8000 Wireless Telephones.

Known Limitations
•
•
•
Beacons are sent from the AP inconsistently; therefore you may
see decreased battery life on the handsets.
A hex-key is not supported with both WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK.
You must use a passphrase for each.
Because the Controller configures a virtual subnet, broadcast data
cannot be sent to the handsets.

Network Topology
The following topology was tested during VIEW Certification. It is
important to note that these do not necessarily represent all "certified"
configurations. The access points were powered through a mid-span
POE adaptor.

Installing Software & Configuration
1. If software upgrades are required, contact Siemens Customer
Support for the latest version of software and instructions.
2. The current version of software installed can be found by opening
a telnet session of the AP and typing the command version, or by
looking at the configuration GUI under Wireless APs and selecting
the general tab for the AP in the field s/w version.
3. If you encounter difficulties or have questions regarding the
configuration process, please contact your Siemens representative
or visit the web site

Configuration Guide
Initial Setup
1. The following instructions are for configuring a wireless controller
and a number of access points with no prior configuration.
2. All of the initial setup is done via a web interface. Connect a
‘Cross-Over’ Ethernet cable directly from the Management Port of
the controller to a PC’s Ethernet port.
3. Log onto the controller by opening a web browser and connect to
default password is abc123.
4. Do this step only if it is necessary to reset the controller back to its
factory default configuration:
a. Click the Wireless Controller button to open the Wireless Controller
Configuration screen.
b. In the navigation pane, click System Maintenance.
c. Click the Reset database to factory default and reboot button.
d. Click the Apply button.
This will reset the database and cause the controller to reboot.
It will take three to four minutes before the controller is
finished.

Controller Setup
The setup steps described below refer to the network topology
diagram shown in this document. Make sure all the access points are
disconnected from the system if configuring the system for the first
time.
Assigning an IP address to a wireless controller
1. Log onto the controller by opening a web browser and connect to
default password is abc123.
2. Click the Wireless Controller button.
3. In the navigation pane, click IP Addresses.
4. Change the value of esa0 to 192.168.110.10 for the IP Address, and
to 255.255.255.0 for the Subnet mask.
5. Select the Mgmt and SLP check boxes for this port only (thus
turning it on). Leave these unchecked (off) for the other ports.
6. For Function, select Host Port if static routing is used. Otherwise,
select Dynamic Port if Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is being used
for routing and routing advertisements.
7. Enter esa0 for Multicast Support. Refer to the screen shot shown
below.
8. Click the Save button.
This is for topologies where the SpectraLink 8000 Telephony
Gateway(s) and SVP Servers are located adjacent to the esa0 port,
as was done in this VIEW Certification test. In topologies where the
setup is different, this multicast setting should be configured to
whichever port the SpectraLink servers are adjacent to. This setting
permits proper wired replication of multicast data from the wireless
subnet.

Assigning routing protocols to a wireless controller
1. In the Wireless Controller screen, click Routing Protocols in the
navigation pane.
2. Enter 0.0.0.0 for the Destination Address and 0.0.0.0 for the Subnet
Mask. Add the appropriate address for the Gateway.
3. Click the Save button.
If dynamic routing (OSPF) is being used, then the default route
should be set automatically. However, it is always recommended
that you assign a temporary static route in dynamic environments to
allow the device to operate immediately without having to wait for
the initial updates. Be sure to clear the check box for Override
dynamic routes. This will allow dynamic routes to be the default once
they arrive.
