Configuring the Network Parameters for a UDP Plus Network
In a UDP Plus network, the CN3 communicates with a host
computer through the Intermec Application Server. The
Intermec Application Server translates UDP Plus packets on the
wireless network into TCP/IP packets on the wired networks and
vice versa. The access point acts as a bridge to allow
communications between the wired network and the wireless
network.
