Figure 24 - (S) Example of start of ELSA collection module
(S) ELSA will begin monitoring wifi networks. It will wait until the first archive period
before writing the log file. In this example the archive will be update every 62 seconds.
The tool will wait for the startup and install delays to expire before collecting wifi
observations. As configured this will be 32 seconds. The operator can verify the tool is
running by observing the ‘%SystemRoot%\TEMP\elsag.data’ for file size changes.
Wireshark is useful for observing the HTTPS traffic as the tool queries google or
microsoft for geolocation coordinates. After several wifi survey intervals the operator
can connect and copy the collection file ‘%SystemRoot%\TEMP\elsag.data’ into a new
directory ‘outdir’ on the Operator Terminal and process it.
