SpectraLink 8000 Telephony
Gateway Administration
Overview
The SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway(s) and wireless telephones
are administered and maintained through a series of menu options for
each SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway in the system. The
SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server has a separate set of menus that are
covered in a separate document: SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server
Administration Guide for SRP.
System menus are usually viewed via an administrative computer
that is connected to a SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway via the
serial port or through a Telnet session on the LAN. Alternately, an
external modem may be used for viewing system menus. The series of
screens containing menus and options for configuring and
maintaining the SpectraLink 8000 components is called the
Administration Console. Maintenance functions include:
• Configuring the SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway’s network
parameters and its interface to the host telephone system.
• Configuring each SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway’s
handsets, including adding and deleting handsets.
• Programming the handset’s menu and features associated with
PBX functions.
• Reviewing system status to check usage and diagnose system
problems.
Wireless telephones have a separate administration document that is
used in conjunction with this one for complete system configuration
and administration. See SpectraLink e340/h340/i640 Wireless Telephone:
Administration Guide or SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephone
Administration Guide.
APs move information between the wireless local area network (LAN)
and the wired LAN. They are NOT configured from the
