1.2.8 LISTEN Mode (Serial Interface Only)
LISTEN Mode is a passive data bridging mode of the CLI Session. The LISTEN Mode is only
applicable on the serial interface. When the CLI Session on the serial interface enters LISTEN
Mode, the Airborne™ WLN Module passively waits for a data bridge to be established over the
wireless interface. The data bridge may be initiated using a CLI Session via the PASS Mode or
using the tunneling feature. The CLI Session may transition to CLI Mode using CLI Server
escape processing. See section “CLI Server Escape Processing” for details.
When the serial interface CLI Session is in LISTEN Mode, the following are possible:
TCP connections on the wireless interface can use the CLI commands pass,
putget or putexpect to establish a data bridge.
TCP connection can establish a data bridge if tunneling is enabled.
1.2.9 CLI Session Startup Modes
The startup behavior of the CLI Session on each interface is determined as follows:
The CLI Session on the serial interface startup behavior is determined by the value
of the serial-default parameter.
CLI Sessions on the wireless interface using the TCP port specified by wl-telnet-
port always start in CLI Mode.
CLI Sessions on the wireless interface using the TCP port specified by the wl-
tunnel-port or the UDP port specified by wl-udp-rxport, always start in PASS
Mode. However, if the CLI Session on the serial interface is not in LISTEN Mode, the
TCP connection on the wl-tunnel-port will be rejected by the Module.
1.2.10 CLI Server Escape Processing
The CLI Server includes an escape processing feature which allows CLI Sessions to transition
from PASS or LISTEN (data bridging) Mode back to CLI Mode. Escape processing is
configurable to:
disable escape processing
process the receipt of a user-defined escape string as an escape signal
process the receipt of the BREAK signal as an escape signal
When escape processing is disabled, the CLI Server will not parse the data stream for any
escape sequence. When escape processing is configured to use an escape string, the CLI
Server will perform pattern matching for the user-defined escape string in the data stream. The
escape string is a five (5)-character string configurable via the escape CLI command. When
escape processing is configured to use the BREAK signal, the CLI Server will parse the data
stream for the BREAK signal.
