To optimize battery life, the interval between sending out ELP updates will vary based on handset state. It is expected that ELP updates will occur at most every two to six seconds and at least every few minutes. If improved tracking capability is desired, set the transmit interval for a shorter time between ELP updates. Increasing the frequency of transmissions will decrease battery life.

Location Server IP Allows the user to statically enter the IP address of the EPE. Enter the IP address and press NavOK to save.

Ekahau clients are not expected to find the EPE automatically.

Regardless of the handset’s selection of DHCP or static IP, the EPE

IP address must be statically entered in the Ekahau admin menus or

ELP Port Allows the user to select the port number which ELP updates get sent to at the Location Server IP address. It must match the value configured in the Ekahau Positioning Engine for proper functionality. The ELP port number must be greater than zero and less than 65536.

Default is 8552. Enter the port number and press NavOK to save.
