R&S®NC access points are able to work as LBS clients with an LBS server. In this case, they report any connected clients to the LBS server, which can then offer location-based services to those clients. An HTTP API is supported as of LCOS 10.42, along with a Thrift interface that has been available for some time already.
Using the HTTP interface, access points can send LBS data directly to a freely configurable HTTP endpoint. The data is sent in JSON format, which ensures easy processing at the receiving end.
LANconfig:
- Location based services (LBS) enabled
- Enables or disables the location-based services.
- Server type
- Here you configure whether to use the HTTP interface or the Thrift interface.
