Voice Wireless LAN Configuration
Cisco recommends that Load Balancing ALWAYS be turned off in any wireless LAN that is supporting
voice, regardless of vendor. When Load Balancing is turned on, voice clients can hear an audible artifact
when roaming and the handset is refused at its first reassociation attempt.

Cisco 7920 Wireless IP Phone Support
When using Cisco 7920 Wireless IP phones with wireless LAN controllers, make sure that the phones
and wireless LAN controllers are configured as follows:
and wireless LAN controllers are configured as follows:
•
Aggressive Load Balancing on the wireless LAN controllers must be disabled on a per-wireless
LAN controller basis. Otherwise, the initial roam attempt by the phone may fail, causing a
disruption in the audio path.

•
The QoS Basis Service Set (QBSS) information element (IE) must be enabled. The QBSS IE enables
the Cisco Aironet lightweight access point to communicate its channel usage to wireless devices.
Because Cisco Aironet lightweight access points with high channel usage might not be able to
handle real-time traffic effectively, the 7920 phone uses the QBSS value to determine if they should
associate with anotherCisco Aironet lightweight access point. Use the following instructions to
enable the QBSS IE:
