1. Introduction
This document describes the interoperability of a ProCurve wireless services solution coupled with the Avaya 3631
Wireless Phone to provide a secure Voice over WLAN (VoWLAN) solution with the following services:
• Secure wireless encryption with WPA2-PSK
• Fast roaming
• Quality of Service on the wireless media, with WMM
Note: About other Avaya phone models: Avaya 3641-3645 wireless phones are quite different from Avaya 3631
wireless phone: they are virtually the same models as SpectraLink-Polycom 8020 and 8030 models, also branded as
Alcatel-Lucent IP Touch Wireless LAN 310 and 610 phones.
The Avaya 3631 wireless is both a mobile and Wifi phone. You need to have a SIM card inserted even if you only
want to use the Wifi features.
