    Badge to Badge CommunicationsWhen one Vocera user calls another user, the badge first contacts the Vocera server, which looks up the IP address of the badge of the callee and contacts the badge user to ask the user if they can take a call. If the callee accepts the call, the Vocera server notifies the calling badge of the IP address of the calle ...

    Multicast in an LWAPP Deployment Understanding multicast within an LWAPP deployment is necessary to deploy the Vocera broadcast function. This document later covers the essential steps to enable multicast within the controller−based solution. There are currently two delivery methods that the LWAPP controller uses to deliver multicast to the clien ...

    Note: If AP Group VLANs are configured, and an IGMP join is sent from a client through the controller, it is placed on the default VLAN of the WLAN that the client is on. Therefore, the client might not receive this multicast traffic unless the client is a member of this default broadcast domain. Multicast−Multicast Delivery Method The multicast? ...

    Disable Switch VLAN IGMP Snooping IGMP snooping allows a switched network with multicast enabled to limit traffic to those switchports that have users who want multicast to be seen while pruning the multicast packets from switchports that do not wish to see the multicast stream. In a Vocera deployment, it can be undesirable to enable CGMP or IGMP s ...

    Single Controller Deployment This is the most straight forward deployment scenario. It allows you to deploy the Vocera Badge solution with little deployment concerns. Your network must be enabled for IP multicast routing only to allow the access points to receive the LWAPP multicast packets. If required, you can limit network multicast complexity b ...

    Multiple Controller Layer 2 Deployment Multiple controllers must all have connectivity to each other via the same Layer 2 broadcast domain. Both controllers are configured for multicast as shown, using the identical access point multicast groups on each controller to limit fragmentation. With the assumption that this Layer 2 broadcast domain is con ...

    Switch Recommendations Note: If you use a Cisco Catalyst 4000 Series Switch as the main router in the network, ensure that it contains, at a minimum, either a Supervisor Engine 2+ (SUP2+) or Supervisor Engine 3 (SUP3) module.

    When Subnet Roaming is checked, it instructs the badge to request a new IP address after each roam. In the LWAPP environment, the infrastructure helps maintain client connectivity at Layer 3.
