Mobile Device Configuration

For simple IP tests, the username and password must match the username and password set on the MIP-5850 PPP configuration page.

For mobile IP tests, the Mobile IP shared secret and spi values should match those entered for the home agent on the MIP-5850 Mobile IP configuration page

If you plan to use a mobile phone's built-in browser, you will need to set the browser's home page to something that can be accessed when the browser is launched. The suggested home page setting is http://mobipsimaddress/mobipdemo.htm where mobipsimaddress is the MIP-5850 address.

If you plan to use the mobile as a wireless modem from a PC, follow the phone manufacturer's instructions for configuring this connection.

Generally the user must be able to set IP addresses in the phone as well as different modes (such as Simple IP).

Check to make sure you have completed the following steps before attempting a Mobile IP Call:

• The MIP-5850 was set up on the network and its IP address was recorded on the worksheet.

• The mobile station provisioning parameters related to Mobile IP were recorded on the Configuration Worksheet.

• The MIP-5850 was configured using the data from the Configuration Worksheet.

• The E5515C was successfully configured.

• The test phone was configured to use either its built-in browser with a valid home page or to act as a wireless modem for a PC-based web browser.

Things to consider when testing Mobile IP operation:

Mobile IP establishes an IP connection on the first call attempt. The traffic channel may be released by the phone's dormant mode inactivity timer, by closing the dial up connection, by exiting the built-in browser, or by manually releasing the call from the E5515C. In most cases, the IP connection remains active even though the call is released. Phones typically have an icon to show this state where the connection is dormant. You will need to become familiar with the characteristics of the mobile device you are using to verify this state.
