SCENARIOS 
Avaya 3631 Wireless telephones can be deployed in a Meru Networks WLAN system where the 
access points are deployed within a subnet or across multiple layer 2 subnets. 
 
When deploying the system, you should determine which types of devices will require access 
and the mechanism of authentication/encryption that they support.  This will drive the 
configuration of the system to support different user groups and security methods. 
2.1 Recommendations 
For a typical deployment, we recommend configuring at least one ESSID for the 3631 wireless 
telephones on a voice VLAN. 
 
For PC’s, configure additional ESSIDs.  This traffic should be separated onto a secure VLAN.

GUIDELINES 
3.1 Virtual 
Cell 
Meru Virtual Cell technology allows for zero-handoff as the wireless IP telephones roam through 
the wireless environment.  This dramatically improves the quality and consistency of client roam 
times. 
CONFIGURING THE MERU NETWORKS WLAN CONTROLLERS 
Ensure that Basic controller configuration is complete including RADIUS authentication setup, if 
appropriate. 
4.1 Security 
Configuration 
Meru Networks supports the following 802.11 security mechanisms for wireless IP telephones: 
•  Clear (Open)
