The following values should be set:

  • "PROBE_NO" (line 171242) should match the number assigned to the testtools of the particular WiFiMon Hardware Probe (WHP), e.g. for the WHP assigned the number 1, the value should be "1". Assigning numbers to WHPs is possible by appropriately setting the testtool attribute included in the websites monitored by them. More information related to assigning number to WHPs is available in the WiFiMon Test Server installation guide.
  • "WAS_FQDN_OR_IP" (line 164235) should match the FQDN or the IP address of the WiFiMon Analysis Server (WAS) responsible for processing the TWAMP measurement results of the WHP. The above code block assumes that the WAS uses HTTPS and port 443.
  • "TWAMP_SERVER_FQDN_OR_IP" (line 173246): Should be filled with the FQDN or the IP address of the TWAMP Server.
