Turn the Wi-Fi On or Off from the Phone Web Page
You can enable or disable the wireless LAN of your phone from the phone web page. You turn on the Wi-Fi

Procedure
Step 1 Select Voice > System.

Set Up a Wi-Fi Profile from the Phone Web Page and the XML
Provisioning Server
You can configure a Wi-Fi profile from the phone web page or from remote device profile resync and then
associate the profile to the available Wi-Fi networks. You can use this Wi-Fi profile to connect to a Wi-Fi.
You can configure maximum of four profiles.
The profile contains the parameters required for phones to connect to the phone server with Wi-Fi. When you
create and use a Wi-Fi profile, you or your users do not need to configure the wireless network for individual
phones.
A Wi-Fi profile enables you to prevent or limit changes to the Wi-Fi configuration on the phone by the user.
We recommend that you use a secure profile with TFTP encryption enabled to protect keys and passwords
when you use a Wi-Fi profile.
When you set up the phones to use EAP-FAST, PEAP-MSCHAPV, or PEAP-GTC authentication or security
mode, your users need individual credentials to sign into the phone.
