24.1 802.IQ Features
802.IQ is a Psion Teklogix proprietary enhanced 802.11 protocol that enables mobile com-
puters to operate in a wireless LAN in a network that supports both TCP/IP and 802.IQ
protocols simultaneously. 802.IQ protocol is available in two versions: 802.IQ v1 and
802.IQ v2. The 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway can support both versions of the protocol at the
same time (mobile computers must use only one).
802.IQ v1 protocol is a wireless LAN routing scheme that provides greater performance in
an 802.11 wireless network than is possible with TCP/IP routing. A mobile computer can
communicate with the 9160 G2 access point using either TCP/IP or 802.IQ v1 protocol,
which makes possible a system with dual operability. For further information and configura-
tion menus for 802.IQv1, see page 306.
802.IQ v2 protocol is an enhanced version of the 802.IQ v1 protocol that transports packets
over the UDP layer. It provides all the 802.IQ v1 functionality, with the added features of
software upgrade capability over RF, the ability to add third-party access points between con-
trollers and mobile computers, and integration into the mapRF system, if desired. For information
on configuring an 802.IQ v2 mini-controller, see page 307.
24.1.1 802.IQ v 1 /v2 Common Features
Important: 802.IQ should only be enabled on wired 9160 G2s.
Do not configure 802.IQ on wired 9160 G2s bridging networks, since 802.IQ
beacons would be sent through the WDS link from one network to the other
(see Chapter 20: “Wireless Distribution System”).
Auto-Startup
This parameter enables 802.IQ immediately when the 9160 G2 is rebooted. When the 9160
G2 is operating as a base station under a network controller or a 9160 G2 mini-controller,
this parameter must be
disabled .
The default value is disabled .
Important: If Auto Startup is set incorrectly, mobile computers may not operate
correctly.
Beacon Period
An 802.IQ beacon is a broadcast sent out to all 802.IQ-enabled mobile computers. The
beacon allows mobile computers to determine when they have roamed between base sta-
tions. It enables a mobile computer to determine whether or not the base station or controller
