4.2 LAN
Requirements
Network Infrastructure
The NetLink Telephony Gateway connects to your local area network (LAN). To
provide adequate bandwidth and limit collisions, an Ethernet switch is required. The
traffic between the NetLink Telephony Gateway and wireless LAN APs should be
isolated as much as possible to avoid additional latency. The NetLink Telephony
Gateway and APs must be on the same logical IP subnet. Inter-subnet roaming is not
permitted for wireless devices.
Each NetLink Telephony Gateway to be installed requires a 10 Mb/s switched Ethernet
connection.
