Description
●
Tag Information forwarding
In the management program that evaluates the AeroScout frames, you can specify
whether or not an IWLAN device will forward frames. Here, you can see which setting
was made in the management program.
Note
With a suitable configuration, the SCALANCE W700 forwards AeroScout frames but does
not process or evaluate them itself. This is done only in the "AeroScout System Manager"
program.
●
AeroScout State
This indicates whether AeroScout is enabled or disabled.
●
Engine port
The IWLAN device expects UDP packets from the management program at port 1144.
●
Response IP
The IP address of the computer on which the management program for evaluation of the
AeroScout frames is running.
●
Multicast address
The tag sends frames as multicast. This multicast address is configured in the
management program and displayed here.
●
Acknowledgements sent
The number of acknowledgments sent by the IWLAN device to the management program
as a result of cyclic queries or manual configuration changes in the management program
(UDP packets).
●
Messages dropped
The number of frames not forwarded. If, for example, an AeroScout tag is configured so
that it sends on channel 1, the IWLAN device does not forward a frame received on
channel 6.
