An RFID application can communicate directly with the IF2 BRI
Server using the BRI protocol, or it can communicate with the IF2
using the Low-Level-Reader Protocol (LLRP).
Intermec recommends that you write and test your application on a
development workstation (your desktop PC). The application can
access the IF2 BRI interface via TCP on port 2189.
About RFID Services
