    Hi,

     

    i have an AP 535 with integrated Beacon, but i can't see it with classic application like Beacon scanner.

     

    i have put this config : 

    (Instant AP)(config)# ble mode beaconing

    (Instant AP)(config)# end

    (Instant AP)# commit apply

     

    and i can see it  

    show ap debug ble-table all

    20:4c:03:84:e2:8a  BT-AP530  DFU App 1.3-44  0x0003  LIA     ONBOARD  --    0       0       4152554E-F99B-4A3B-86D0-947070693A78  -56         7         I:9s         6m:40s

     

    But no beacon scanner can see it, i have seen somewhere that maybe we must have meridian app to activate ....

     

    can somebody help me ?

    What Instant firmware version are you running?

    You will need the Meridian Beacons app and a Meridian subscription to provision the beacon, that also applies for AP beacons.

    thx Herman, so we must have a meridian subcription to use integrated beacon or just for starting the beacon and after it's autonomous ?

     

    i ask that because we develop a little app and we don't need the meridian services.

     

    Thx

    That sounds correct, the location/proximity beacon functionality is part of Meridian platform. Please contact your local Aruba sales team to discuss your goals and what might be possible.
