You must have completed the procedure Configure IoT Profiles and be in the process of configuring a Device Group IoT Profile for the BLE Scan function and iBeacon scan application to continue with the information provided in this section.
When the BLE Scan function and iBeacon scan application combination is enabled, scan results can be forwarded to the ADSP and positioning engines, providing that Air Defense and Positioning profiles are configured.
Note
Check External Server if you want to configure the Destination for the scan results. Indicate the UDP server IP and Port.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Unique profile name. |
| Function | Determines the purpose of the IoT profile.
Select BLE Scan. |
| Application | Determines application type based on the previously selected
function BLE Scan. Select iBeacon Scan. |
| Scan | |
| Interval | Determines how long to wait between scans. Valid values are: Min (100ms) and Max (10240ms). The default value is Min (100ms). |
| Window | Determines how long to scan per channel. Valid values are Min (100ms) and Max (10240ms).Value must be less than Scan Interval value. Default value is 100ms. |
| Filter | |
| UUID | Identifier used to differentiate a large group of related beacons. A company can have a
network of beacons with the same UUID.
Used for filtering data. ExtremeCloud IQ Controller forwards data with matching UUID to the Application Server and filters out all other UUID data. If UUID configured value is all zeros, no filtering occurs. |
| Min RSSI [dBm] | This is the signal strength required to include the packet in the BLE report. Valid values: -10 to -100. Default value is -100. Data from beacons with an RSSI that is less than the Min RSSI configured value is filtered out. |
| Destination | |
| IP Address | IP address of the customer Application Server that receives the beacon report. |
| Port | Destination Port on the customer Application Server (UDP Server) that presents the beacon report. Best Practice: Verify that the server IP address and Port number specified in the Profile are open. |
