Does smart config work without an AP in range?

It appears to me that Smart Config requires an AP be within range for Smart Config to work, but I need absolute confirmation.

    I understand completely how SmartConfig works.  The cc3000 enters a mode where is listens and intercepts packets that contain the encoded ssid and password.  Without an access point for the client to connect to, I don't see how it would work.  No client will let you open a socket without first having some network connection...  but, if you can send the necessary UDP packets into the air where the cc3000 can intercept them, it should work.  Of course, once the cc3000 gets the ssid and password, the profile would be added, but the connection would fail because the AP does not exist.

    Do you know that what's the smartconfig packet structure?  you said send necessary UDP packets, are you sure is UDP?

    thanks
