(APs) and key Cisco IP telephony components, including Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, to provide wireless voice communication. In a traditional LAN, IP phones and computers use cables to transmit messages and data packets. Cisco Unified WLAN delivers security, scalability, reliability, ease of deployment, and management similar to wired LANs.
Cisco IOS software provides features for managing voice traffic. In some WLANs, each AP has a wired connection to an Ethernet switch, such as a Cisco Catalyst 3750, that is configured on a LAN. The switch provides access to gateways and the Cisco Unified Communications Manager server to support wireless IP telephony.
802.11d—Enables APs to communicate available radio channels and acceptable power levels. The Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7925G will always give precedence to 802.11d to determine which channels and powers to use. If the information is unavailable, then the phone will fallback to the locally configured regulatory domain.
802.11 Data Rates, Tx Power, Ranges, and Decibel Tolerances Table 2-2 lists the Tx power capacities, data rates, ranges in feet and meters, and decibels tolerated by the receiver by 801.11 standard.

1. Adjusts dynamically when associating with an AP if the AP client setting is enabled. 2. Advertised rates by the APs are used. If the Restricted Data Rates functionality is enabled in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration phone configuration, then the Traffic Stream Rate Set IE (CCX V4) is used.
The Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7925G uses the fourth domain for all other regions in the world. Wireless LANs in the rest of the world use 802.11d to identify band ranges and channels.
Layer 3 Roaming—With the release of the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Wireless LAN Services Module (WLSM), the Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7925G now supports Layer 3 roaming for autonomous mode APs. For details about the Cisco WLSM, refer to the product documentation available at: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/cat6000/cfgnotes/wlsm_1_1/index.htm...

Go to the Phone Recovery section on the web page and upload a new Phone Software TAR file. • If, after attempting these solutions, the phone still does not start up, contact a Cisco technical support representative for additional assistance.
Check that the correct EAP username and password are entered on phone. AP Error—Cannot support all requested capabilities On the access point, check that CKIP/CMIC is not enabled for the voice VLAN SSID. The Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7925G does not support these features.
Checking Network Connectivity If the network is down between the access point and the TFTP server or Cisco Unified Communications Manager, the phone cannot start up properly. Ensure that IP connectivity exists between the WLAN and the Cisco Unified Communications Manager and TFTP servers.
8-12. Verifying IP Addresses You should verify the IP addressing for the Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7925G. If you are using DHCP, the DHCP server should provide these values. If you have assigned a static IP address to the phone, you must enter these values manually.
Cisco Unified Communications Manager and TFTP Services are not Running If the Cisco Unified Communications Manager or TFTP services are not running, phones might not be able to start up properly. However, in such situations, it is likely that you are experiencing a system-wide failure and that other phones and devices are unable to start up properly.
To create a new configuration file, follow these steps: Procedure Step 1 From Cisco Unified Communications Manager, select Device > Phone > Find to locate the phone experiencing problems. Step 2 Choose Delete to remove the phone from the Cisco Unified Communications Manager database.
If the network connection and Cisco Unified Communications Manager connection are stable, a Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7925G should not reset on its own. Typically, a phone resets if it has problems connecting to the access point and LAN or to Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
Verify the DHCP lease duration. Your local policy determines this setting. Step 3 Cisco Unified IP Phones send messages with request type 151 to renew their DHCP address leases. If the DHCP server expects messages with request type 150, the lease will be denied, forcing the phone to restart and request a new IP address from the DHCP server.
No Audio During a Connected Call If you are using a release earlier than 2.0, then you must disable TKIP and MIC features on the access point. These features are only supported with release 2.0 and later on the Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7925G.
Check your gateway and IP routing for voice problems. • Check if a firewall or NAT is in the path of the RTP packets. If so, you can use Cisco IOS and • PIXNAT to modify the connections so that two-way audio is possible.
Phone Does Not Roam Back to Preferred Band When the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7960 is set to 5 GHz band as the preferred network and is authenticated to an AP on that band and roams to an area in which 5 GHz is not longer available but 2.4 GHz is available, the phone operates.
