Introduction
The WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 acts as a proxy for the wireless
handsets and provides several services for them. It is connected to the
same subnet as the wireless handsets. The wireless handsets always
communicate voice and signaling directly with the WLAN IP Telephony
Manager 2245, using the proprietary SpectraLink Voice Protocol (SVP).
SVP is required for quality of service (QoS) because the current
IEEE 802.11a/b/g wireless LAN standard provides no mechanism
for differentiating audio packets from data packets. This standard is
undergoing revision to version 802.11e to provide functionality in an
industry standard similar to SVP, therefore ensuring high-quality voice in a
mixed-client environment.
The wireless handsets are configured with the IP address of a designated
WLAN Telephony Manager 2245. As the wireless handsets register, they
receive a list of IP addresses of other WLAN Telephony Manager 2245 in
the network and they distribute among other WLAN Telephony Manager
2245 to share the load. This WLAN Telephony Manager 2245 becomes
the registration point. The list of addresses automatically updates each
time the wireless handset powers on.
