Configure Each Avaya 3641/3645 IP Wireless Handset
Avaya 3641/3645/6120/6140 IP Wireless Handset SIP Administration Guide June 2012 47
If you have an Avaya Wireless Application Interface Gateway installed in your system,
you may optionally enable OAI in each handset. You may select whether the handset
should attempt to connect to the Avaya Wireless Application Interface Gateway by
choosing either the Enable or Disable options in this menu.
If OAI is enabled, and an IP address (called the OAI Server IP) is available to the
handset through either DHCP or Static IP configuration, the handset communicates with
the Gateway at power-on, and periodically while it is powered-on. If you don’t have an
Avaya Wireless Application Interface Gateway installed at your site, you should disable
the OAI feature to preserve network bandwidth and battery life.
Location Service
You can enable or disable the Ekahau Real-Time Location System (RTLS), select a
transmit interval, or enter a static IP address for the Ekahau Positioning Engine (EPE)
using the Location service. Location services capability is provided by the EPE 4.0 using
Ekahau Location Protocol (ELP). See Ekahau’s user documentation for more
information.
RTLS [Enable/Disable] The RTLS is disabled by default. Press NavOK to toggle to the
alternate setting. When RTLS is enabled, the handset will display the RTLS icon in
the top center of the screen.
The ring indicator icon will take precedence over the RTLS icon, i.e. the new icon will not
be visible while the handset is ringing. When ringing has ceased and the ring indicator
becomes inactive, the RTLS icon will again appear (regardless of hook state).
Transmit interval allows selection of 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes,
or 10 minutes for maximum time between transmit intervals. Default transmit interval is
10 minutes. Press NavOK to select the desired transmit interval.
Note:
To optimize battery life, the interval between sending out ELP updates will vary based on
handset state. It is expected that ELP updates will occur at most every two to six
seconds and at least every few minutes. If you want improved tracking capability, set the
transmit interval for a shorter time between ELP updates. Increasing the frequency of
transmissions will decrease battery life.
Location Server IP allows the user to statically enter the IP address of the EPE. Enter
the IP address and press NavOK to save.
Note:
Ekahau clients are not expected to find the EPE automatically. Regardless of the
handset’s selection of DHCP or static IP, the EPE IP address must be statically entered
in the Ekahau Admin menus or HAT.
ELP Port allows the user to select the port number to which ELP updates are sent to at
the Location Server IP address. It must match the value configured in the Ekahau
Positioning Engine for proper functionality. The ELP port number must be greater than
zero and less than 65536. Default is 8552. Enter the port number and press NavOK to
save.
