authenticate to the configured network. As long as the network is in
range, the wireless interface will connect. Access to the public
network from the private network is now possible.
The private network supports Airborne™ discovery protocol (UDAP) and will respond to discovery requests.
The subnet for the private network IP addresses (Ethernet Client and Gateway) and public IP
address (WLAN), obtained by the module via the wireless interface,
MUST NOT
be the same.
Failure to observe this requirement will result in unpredictable behavior of the adapter.
