Configuration Section 3 Field EDCA AP and Client Parameters: (continued) Description Configuration settings are available to individually adjust EDCA parameters for WA840 transmissions (EDCA AP parameters) and for client device transmissions (EDCA Client parameters). You can set, left to right for each Access Category, the following EDCA parameters: • a minimum CW (in slots) • a maximum CW (in slots) • the AISFN (in slots) • a TXOP Limit (b) for 11Mbps 802.11b operation (in microseconds) • a separate TXOP Limit (a/g) for 54Mbps 802.11g operation, since more capacity is available (in microseconds) [this last field references 802.11a as well, per WMM standards, since 802.11a is also a 54Mbps wireless technology] You can selectively enable and disable specific EDCA parameter settings, on an AC by AC basis, by selecting On or Off in the Admin Forced dialog box at the end of each row.
