WLAN IP Telephony Installation and Configuration
In Figure 18, a WLAN Application Gateway 2246 is connected to the site’s
LAN through an Ethernet switch. The connection to the Application Server
can be accomplished by a direct connection (RS-232) or through the Ethernet
connection. Only one of these connections can be used at one time.
The IP address of the WLAN Application Gateway 2246 must be set during
configuration. Once the IP address is established, the WLAN Application
Gateway 2246 can be accessed by the Application Server through the RS-232
port or the through the LAN using Telnet.
