ProSafe 20-AP Wireless Controller WC7520 Reference Manual Configuring Rate Limiting Rate limiting per profile adds up to a maximum of 100%. It can be less than 100%. Tabs are per radio. Rate limiting can be configured differently for each Basic Service Set ID (BSSID) in a security profile group. Rate limiting is done per BSSID and is configured as a percentage of available bandwidth. Available bandwidth is determined by the amount of errors during transmission and the amount of time a packet has to spend in the transmission queues. The available bandwidth is distributed among the BSSIDs configured on the access points in the specified percentage. The percentage configured for a BSSID is shared among all the clients connected to it. The total of the percentages distributed among the BSSIDs can be up to 100%. If a specific BSSID is to be left out of rate limiting, it could be configured to 0%, which effectively disables rate limiting for that BSSID. A setting of 0% is good for BSSIDs that are used for management, administration, or testing. Basic Rate Limiting To configure the rate limit: 1. Select Configuration > Profile > Basic > Rate Limit. The Rate Limit screen displays: Figure 47. 2. For each profile on the tab, specify the Rate Limit as a percentage. You can use the slider bars to adjust the values in the Rate Limit fields. 3. Click Apply to save your settings. Chapter 7: Configuring Wireless Settings | 81
