 Tx Interval (seconds) — Sets the periodic transmit interval for LLDP
advertisements. (Range: 5-32768 seconds; Default: 30 seconds)
 Tx Hold (time(s)) — Configures a time-to-live (TTL) value sent in the LLDP
advertisements as shown in the formula below. (Range: 2-10; Default: 4)
The time-to-live tells the receiving LLDP agent how long to retain all information
pertaining to the sending device if it does not transmit updates in a timely
manner.
The TTL in seconds is based on the following rule:
minimum v
alue ((Tx Interval * Tx Hold), or 65535)
T
herefore, the default TTL is 4*30 = 120 seconds.
BLE The AP supports the iBeacon standard based on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE).
Devices with BLE Beacons can provide location-based services to BLE clients, such
as phones, that can recognize the beacon advertisements, extract the provided
information, and then take actions based on the content.

he following items are displayed on this page:
 Send iBeacon — Enables iBeacon support on the AP. (Default: Enabled)
 UUID — The iBeacon Universally Unique Identifier that advertises the beacon
service. The UUID contains 32 hexadecimal digits in five groups, separated by
hyphens.
 Major — The iBeacon value that is used to identify a beacon group.
(Range: 0-65535)
 Minor — The iBeacon value that is used to identify individual beacons within a
group. (Range: 0-65535)
 Tx Power — Sets the BLE radio transmit power (supported only on EAP101 and
EAP104). (Range: 5 dBm to -20 dBm; Default: 5 dBm)
