    Posted Apr 09, 2014 02:25 PM

    I am looking for some help to configure a Aruba AP to work with a Cisco 7925G VOIP phone. This is a first time deployment. Our wireless controllers are running version 6.2.1.2 code.

     

    Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.

    We are also now looking to deploy all-wireless to a new office space using Aruba wireless and Cisco VoIP phones. How did your deployment go? Would you consider contacting me to share any lessons learned you may have?

    Sure. Here are same basic steps we may need to focus for better installation and deployment adding to above comments.

     

    1. Understand and Plan the AP & Client Capacity on the network..
    2. Make sure for Adequate coverage overlapping between AP`s for roaming.
    3. Calculate round-trip time between Controller to Call server, average should be less than 100 ms.
    4. Max the power on the phones for battery and with updated drivers.
    5. Make sure we have separate VLAN for Voice tagged across the switches.
    6. Make sure QOS, DSCP & dot1p parameters are  applied & configured unique across all the way to call server for end to end QOS delivery.
    7. Follow the VRD for configuration, roaming optimization with best practices.

     

    Feel free to contact TAC in case of any help required.

     

    Thank you,
