Netgear WFS709TP Guia Do Utilizador

14-1

This chapter outlines the steps required to configure a WFS709TP ProSafe Smart Wireless Switch 
for voice devices, including SIP phones and SVP phones. Since voice applications are more 
vulnerable to delay and jitter, the network infrastructure should be able to prioritize the voice 
traffic over the data traffic. This chapter also describes voice-related features that you can 
configure in the WFS709TP operating system.

It includes the following topics:

•

•

•

•

You can enable proxy address resolution protocol (ARP) on the WFS709TP for voice over IP 
(VoIP) clients. When the WFS709TP receives an ARP broadcast for a VoIP client, the switch 
constructs an ARP response containing the client’s MAC address.

This feature reduces the number of broadcast packets sent to VoIP clients, thereby improving the 
battery life of voice handsets. You can enable this option for voice handsets in conjunction with 
increasing the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) interval on clients.

To enable the VoIP proxy ARP feature for VoIP clients:

1. Navigate to the Configuration > Advanced > Security > Firewall Settings page.

2. Select VOIP Proxy ARP.

3. Click Apply.
