The aeroscout compound-time command configures the aggregation time of AeroScout tag and mobile unit (MU) packets on the AC.
The undo aeroscout compound-time command restores the default aggregation time of AeroScout tag and MU packets.
The default aggregation time of AeroScout tag and MU packets is 6553.5s on the AC.
Parameter | Description | Value |
---|---|---|
time-value | Specifies the packet aggregation time. |
The value is an integer that ranges from 0 to 65535. The unit is in 0.1s. If time-value is set to 0, the AP does not aggregate packets but reports the packets in real time. |
During AeroScout location, the AP does not report the received tag packets immediately to the upstream device but aggregates the packets. After a specified time, the AP reports the aggregated packets.
The AeroScout location server delivers an aggregation time of 6553.5s to the APs. The AC delivers the aggregation time to the APs using the aeroscout compound-time command. The AP selects a smaller aggregation time. By default, the aggregation time on the APs is 6553.5s.
If the packet aggregation time is set to a large value on the AeroScout location system, it takes a long time for the AP to report the aggregated packets, resulting in poor real-time performance and a large delay in the transmission of location packets. You can run the aeroscout compound-time command to set a small aggregation time to reduce the delay in location packet transmission.
PrecautionsWhen the size of aggregated packets on an AP reaches 1k bytes, the AP immediately reports the aggregated packets.
