Global Caché Tech Tip: GC-100 Discovery Beacon

The GC-100 network adapter sends out a beacon message to help locate it on the network. The beacon is a UDP packet sent to a multicast IP address and port. The message contains information like the adapter's unique MAC address, model number, and IP configuration to help identify it. The beacon is first sent 3 seconds after power on, then at random intervals between 10 to 60 seconds.

GC-100 Discovery Beacon

The Global Caché GC-100 Network Adapter features a beacon message that can assist in locating GC-
100s on the network. The beacon is a UDP packet sent to the multicast IP address 239.255.250.250 on
UDP port number 9131. Any system listening to this address and port will receive the periodic beacon
message. The message is sent 3 seconds after power on and then at random intervals of 10 to 60 seconds
thereafter.

The beacon message has the following format:

AMXB<-UUID=GC100_000C1E0AF4E1_GlobalCache><-SDKClass=Utility><-
Make=GlobalCache><-Model=GC-100-12><-Revision=1.0.0><Config-
Name=GC-100><Config-URL=http://192.168.1.70>

The UUID value contains the unique MAC address of the GC-100 and is also the name registered with
the DHCP server. The Model value can be either GC-100-12 or GC-100-06. A GC-100-18 will report
back as model GC-100-12.
