GPS - TCP

Kismet can connect to a basic NMEA GPS replicated over a TCP stream.

Typically this would come from a smartphone app like BlueNMEA on Android or NMEA GPS on iPhone.

For a network-based gpsd connection, use the gpsd GPS instead.

Configuration

gps=tcp:host={host},port={port}

name={ name }

Set an arbitrary human-readable name for the GPS. This will be used in the Kismet GPS logs.

reconnect={ true } / { false }

Automatically attempt to re-open the GPS if an error occurs or the connection is interrupted.

This is enabled by default.

host={ hostname }

REQUIRED

Hostname of the system running a GPS TCP stream service.

port={ port }

REQUIRED

Port on which the NMEA stream is running
