Chapter 4 Configuring Controller Settings
Configuring RFID Tag Tracking
The number of tags supported varies depending on controller platform. Table 4-6 lists the number of tags
supported per controller.
You can configure and view RFID tag tracking information through the controller CLI.
Using the CLI to Configure RFID Tag Tracking
To configure RFID tag tracking parameters using the controller CLI, follow these steps:
Step 1 Enable or disable RFID tag tracking by entering this command:
config rfid status {enable | disable}
The default value is enabled.
Step 2 Specify a static timeout value (between 60 and 7200 seconds) by entering this command:
config rfid timeout seconds
The static timeout value is the amount of time that the controller maintains tags before expiring them.
For example, if a tag is configured to beacon every 30 seconds, we recommend that you set the timeout
value to 90 seconds (approximately three times the beacon value). The default value is 1200 seconds.
Step 3 Enable or disable RFID tag mobility for specific tags by entering these commands:
• config rfid mobility vendor_name enable—Enables client mobility for a specific vendor’s tags.
When you enter this command, tags are unable to obtain a DHCP address for client mode when
attempting to select and/or download a configuration.
• config rfid mobility vendor_name disable—Disables client mobility for a specific vendor’s tags.
When you enter this command, tags can obtain a DHCP address. If a tag roams from one subnet to
another, it obtains a new address rather than retaining the anchor state.
Note These commands can be used only for Pango tags. Therefore, the only valid entry for
vendor_name is “pango” in all lowercase letters.
