RTLS
32.1 RTLS Overview
Ekahau RTLS (Real Time Location Service) tracks battery-powered Wi-Fi tags attached to APs
managed by the UAG to create maps, alerts, and reports.
The Ekahau RTLS Controller is the centerpiece of the RTLS system. This server software runs on a
Windows computer to track and locate Ekahau tags from Wi-Fi signal strength measurements. Use
the UAG with the Ekahau RTLS system to take signal strength measurements at the APs (Integrated
Approach / Blink Mode).
You need:
• At least three APs managed by the UAG (the more APs the better since it increases the amount of
information the Ekahau RTLS Controller has for calculating the location of the tags)
• IP addresses for the Ekahau Wi-Fi tags
• A dedicated RTLS SSID is recommended
• Ekahau RTLS Controller in blink mode with TZSP Updater enabled
• Secure policies to allow RTLS traffic if the UAG Secure Policy control is enabled or the Ekahau
RTLS Controller is behind a firewall.
For example, if the Ekahau RTLS Controller is behind a firewall, open ports 8550, 8553, and 8569 to
allow traffic the APs send to reach the Ekahau RTLS Controller.
The following table lists default port numbers and types of packets RTLS uses.
