| 29 | The STA boot message indicates the SSID it searches for by default (WARP-AP) and the node's wireless MAC address ({{{40-D8-55-04-21-4A}}} here). |

| 31 | The STA application implements a simple UART menu, accessed by hitting {{{ESC}}} key: |

| 41 | |
| 42 | Option {{{1}}} will show a sub-menu with a command to reset all Tx/Rx statistics. |
| 43 | |
| 44 | Option {{{2}}} will print the Tx/Rx statistics for all traffic at the STA. |
| 45 | |
| 46 | Option {{{a}}} will print the list of wireless networks the STA has discovered during its active scan. |
