Description of Features of the Portable Device Manager (PDM)

The PDM is an optional management tool for OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 telephones. It is a software application that runs on a local Windows PC. It has a graphical User Interface (GUI) and a database containing parameters specific for each of the OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 telephones used in the system. Examples of parameters are WLAN system parameters and VoIP service parameters. The PDM also enables firmware upgrades. Before an OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 telephone is able to access the WLAN and any services, it must be configured with WLAN system specific parameters, for example the SSID (network identification). The parameters are synchronized with the OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 telephones via a USB cable connected to the OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 Desktop Programmer. The PDM Software itself is free of charge and is via the usual Software supply services available (e.g. via Unify Partner Portal), please look for OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4.

Description of Features of the Wireless Service Gateway (WSG)

The Wireless Service Gateway (WSG) is an optional web-based appliance used for device management, messaging and alarm handling. The OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 telephones needs a basic parameter setup with the PDM, which are basic WLAN and IP settings, to be able to communicate with the WSG. Thereafter the WSG can be used to remotely and wirelessly edit parameters and update software of the OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 telephones. It saves the parameters and software for all OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 telephones in a database with the maximum capacity of this data base being 2.500 OpenStage WL3 or OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 telephones.

The WSG is also required if LDAP access from the OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 telephones and interfaces to the alarming/messaging Server OSCAR are required. The OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 telephones must log on to the WSG to enable the messaging and alarm functions.

Each OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 has also an own configuration menu. This menu can be used as simple option for single handset configuration.

Connectable Devices

The OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 were tested with the following systems:

  • OpenScape Business, from V3
  • OpenScape Voice, from V9
  • OpenScape 4000, from V8

The interface for the solution in the platforms is SIP. One SIP user is required in the platform for each OpenScape WLAN Phone WL4 telephone; please remember the necessary SIP user licenses in the platforms mentioned above. For enabling messaging and alarming the OpenScape Alarm Response Professional (OSCAR), from V3 is required. The OSCAR needs an Open Access Protocol License (OAP) for the connection to the solution.
