Introduction
Polycoms 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 Polycoms lab using the VIEW Certification Test Plan. This document details how to configure BelAir access points (APs) with SpectraLink 8000 Wireless Telephones.
RF technology: Radio: Security: AP firmware version tested: SpectraLink handset models tested: SpectraLink handset software tested: SpectraLink radio mode: Maximum telephone calls per AP:
802.11b/g 2.4 2.484 GHz WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK 5.0.1.1 e340/h340/i640 89.127 802.11b 10 8020/8030 122.010 or greater 802.11b 10
Recommended network topology: Switched Ethernet (recommended) Denotes products directly used in VIEW Certification testing Only WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK are used during VIEW Certification. Other security methods, such as WEP, could be used as well.
Release 5.0.1.1 must be used. Later releases do not include changes to ensure SpectraLink interoperability.

Configuration Guide
Known Limitations
IMPORTANT NOTE: VIEW Certification testing verifies that the user access radio of the BelAir AP 50/100/200 meets the VIEW technical requirements for supporting SpectraLink 8000 Wireless Telephones in a typical enterprise deployment. Testing is conducted in a laboratory where neither outdoor AP coverage area/range nor multiple mesh backhaul hops are considered. Because Wi-Fi mesh deployments vary significantly in terms of wireless backhaul, actual performance can not be guaranteed in a mesh environment. In a BelAir mesh, only Point-to-Point backhaul links with few hops are appropriate for voice traffic. Point-to-Multipoint or Multipoint-to-Multipoint backhaul links cannot be used. BelAir supports a variety of backhaul radio technologies. Only the Wi-Fi backhaul radios were tested during VIEW Certification. WMM must be disabled.

Network Topology
The following topology was tested during VIEW Certification testing.
SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server
BelAir100
PN: 1725-36065-001_D.doc
Configuration Guide
BelAir access radios implement SVP. BelAir backhaul radios can use VLANs to assign voice priority to SpectraLink traffic or they can use the 802.1p User Priority field to prioritize traffic. The configuration shown above uses VLAN prioritization. Any VLAN ID can be used. In the sample configuration given throughout this document, we chose a VLAN ID of 100.
Telnet to CLI
The following command is used to telnet to CLI.
telnet <IP address of controller>
Enable radio
The following command enables the access radio.
/radio# set arm1 mode ap
PN: 1725-36065-001_D.doc
The transmit power setting is determined by coverage requirement, antenna choice, and regulatory requirements. The setting is set by BelAir field engineers or BelAirs VARs, and they have been properly trained to set this appropriately.

Configuration Guide
Enable SVP
The following commands enable SVP support.
/# cd /qos /qos# set svp enable
Disable WMM
The following commands disable WMM support.
/# cd /radio /radio# set wmm disable

Configuration Guide
BelAirs internal access antennas have 8 dBi gain, which is the default setting for this field. If a different antenna is used, then this setting should be changed accordingly. Please refer to the BelAir Hardware Products: Deployment Guidelines manual for more information.

6. Enter your new voice SSID name. 7. Make sure that MBSSID is Disabled. 8. In this example configuration, we mapped the voice SSID to VLAN 100 and enabled Intra-AP client to client communications. 9. Select your privacy mode, and enter a Key as indicated. 10. Click the Apply button.

Configuration Guide
SpectraLink voice traffic. If MBSSID is enabled, each SSID gets its own BSSID, causing the SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server to not work properly, since the SVP Server would perceive the two SSIDs on an AP to be two different APs.
Suppressed refers to whether the SSID gets its own beacon. When
MBSSID is enabled for an SSID, it can only be broadcast (i.e., nonsuppressed) if it is the first SSID. The SpectraLink 8000 Wireless Telephones work fine with an SSID that is either broadcast or suppressed.
Intra-AP client to client communications setting relates to whether client
devices can communicate directly with one another. In certain VoIP-based PBX environments, the SpectraLink 8000 Wireless Telephones need to communicate directly with one another, therefore the setting must be enabled in those instances. Otherwise you may wish to disable this setting to slightly enhance security. It is not recommended to use RADIUS authentication, which is referred to as EAP/DOT1X in BelAirs Web interface.

Set up QoS
1. Click the SYSTEM button. 2. In the navigation pane, click QoS Configuration. 3. If the top-left button is labeled Disable SVP, then SVP is already enabled. Otherwise it will be labeled Enable SVP. Enable SVP if it is not already enabled. 4. Check the UP to Queue Mapping configuration section to verify that only 6 Voice and 7 Network load are mapped to Queue 3. If any other User Priority (UP) values are mapped to Queue 3, then remap them to a different queue. 5. In the Vlan to Queue Mapping Configuration section, enter the voice Vlan ID (VLAN 100 in our example), select 3 highest for the Queue, and click the Add button. 6. If you made changes here, then click the Apply button at the bottom of this section.
