Abstract
Communication information is received from a Wireless Fidelity (“WiFi”) interface. The WiFi interface may receive WiFi information from a WiFi endpoint and/or BLE beacons from a Bluetooth device. The reason a WiFi device can receive BLE beacons is because WiFi channels and BLE beacon frequencies overlap. The BLE beacon may come from a various types of Bluetooth devices, such as a sensor, a mobile device, a communication device, and/or the like. The communication information is filtered based on one or more defined BLE beacon channels. If there are one or more BLE beacons detected in the one or more defined BLE beacon channels, BLE information is generated. The BLE information is then sent to a communication device that tracks the BLE information. For example a network monitoring station can track the BLE information.
