Cisco FSR (Fast Secure Roaming)
A proprietary security mechanism devised by Cisco Systems to overcome some shortcomings in the
802.11 Standard WEP encryption, without impacting the ability of the wireless phones to roam from one
access point to another with seamless voice. Cisco FSR requires advanced configuration of the Cisco
access points in your site. See your Cisco representative for detailed WEP documentation on configuring
your access points and other required security services on your wired network. To configure Cisco FSR
on your wireless phone, you must enter a Radius server username and password into each phone.
Username
Enter a username that matches an entry on your Radius server. Usernames are alphanumeric
strings, and can be entered using the same technique as described above for ESSID entry.
Password
Enter the password that corresponds to this username.
OAI On/Off
The Open Application Interface (OAI) enables third-party computer applications to display alphanumeric
messages on the wireless phone display and take input from the wireless phone's keypad. Refer to the
Open Application Interface (OAI) Specification (Version 1.2) documentation for information about
administering the OAI gateway and the services it can provide.
If you have an OAI gateway installed in your system, OAI may be optionally enabled in each wireless
phone. You may select whether the wireless phone should attempt to connect to the OEM OAI gateway
by choosing either Enable or Disable in this menu.
If OAI is enabled, and an OAI IP address is available to the phone (either via DHCP or static IP
configuration), the phone will communicate with the OAI server at power on, and periodically while it is
powered on. If you do not have an OEM OAI gateway installed at your site, you should disable the OAI
feature to preserve network bandwidth and battery life.
