AeroScout
The AeroScout Enterprise Visibility Solution leverages standard wireless networks
infrastructure to accurately locate any asset and utilize that location to deliver direct benefits
such as asset tracking, process automation, theft prevention and increased utilization.
AeroScout Tags which are small, battery-powered devices are mounted on equipment or
carried by personnel to deliver real-time location of the tracked asset or person. The messages
transmitted by the AeroScout Tags are received by access points and are passed along with
additional information (e.g. signal strength measurements) to the AeroScout Engine, a core
component of the AeroScout visibility system, that calculates the accurate location of the
Tag .
The WLAN 8100 solution supports AeroScout enablement on an AP profile.
Important:
AeroScout enablement is supported only on indoor APs. It is not supported on the AP 8120–
O, which is an outdoor AP.
The following sections describe AeroScout enablement using the Avaya CLI.
