Managing BLE Beacons
In Instant 6.4.3.4-4.2.1.0, W-IAPs support Dell Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices, such as BT-100 and BT-
105, which are used for location tracking and proximity detection. The BLE devices can be connected to a W-
IAP and are monitored or managed by a cloud-based Beacon Management Console (BMC). The BLE Beacon
Management feature allows you to configure parameters for managing the BLE beacons and establishing
secure communication with the Beacon Management Console (BMC). You can also configure the BLE operation
modes that determine the functions of the built-in BLE chip in the W-IAP.
The BLE beacon management and BLE operation mode feature is supported only on W-IAP334/335, W-
IAP314/315, W-IAP324/325, W-IAP224/225, W-IAP205H, and W-IAP214/215 devices.
