ekahau Enables Ekahau multicast packet forwarding on this radio
forward ip <IP> port <0-65535> Enables multicast packet forwarding to the Ekahau engine
  • ip <IP> – Configures the IP address of the Ekahau engine in the A.B.C.D format
    • port <0-65535> – Specifies the TZSP (TaZman Sniffer Protocol) port on Ekahau engine from 0 - 65535

TZSP is an encapsulation protocol, which is generally used to wrap 802.11 wireless packets.
mac <MAC> Configures the multicast MAC address to forward the Ekahau multicast packets
  • <MAC> – Specify the MAC address in the AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF format.
