31 Overview If too many wireless handsets ar e attempting to down load new firmware simultaneously, the downloads can slow down or erro r messages can be returned. To re duce the number of retries and error messages, manage the dow nload process by staggering the times the wireless handsets download the firmware. The TFTP Server must be capable of [...]

32 Overview The IP-related parameters of the WLAN Handsets 2210/221 1 can be configured ma nually or through a DHCP Server (RFC 1541 and RFC 1533). The DHCP Server can be on either side of the firewall, according to the site administrator’s preference. The DHCP Server is optional if the WLAN handsets and WLAN IP Telephony Manager 2245 are statica[...]

33 Overview Firewall In many installations there will be a firewall installed between the wired and wireless parts of the network.
