Hello arunvm
The SDK 2.1 Release will address the configuration of these iBeacon Paramters.
The SDK 2.1 Release should happen sometime next week.
You may also need to enquire about an iBeacon license from Apple if you are to be iBeacon compatible.
Let me know if you have further questions
Thanks
JT
