ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP210 Reference Manual 2. Enter the appropriate information in the following fields: • RTS Threshold (0 - 2347). Request to Send Threshold. The packet size that is used to determine if it should use the CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection) mechanism or the CSMA/CA mechanism for packet transmission. With the CSMA/CD transmission mechanism, the transmitting station sends out the actual packet as soon as it has waited for the silence period. With the CSMA/CA transmission mechanism, the transmitting station sends out an RTS packet to the receiving station, and waits for the receiving station to send back a CTS (Clear to Send) packet before sending the actual packet data. The default is 2347. • Fragmentation Length (256 - 2346). This is the maximum packet size. Packets larger than the size specified in this field will be fragmented. The Fragment length value must be larger than the RTS Threshold value. The default is 2346. • Beacon Interval (100 - 1000). The time interval between 100 ms and 1000 ms for each beacon transmission, which allows the access point to synchronize the wireless network. The default is 100. • Aggregation Length (1024 - 65535). The aggregation length defines the size of aggregated packets. Larger aggregation lengths can sometimes lead to better network performance. The default is 65535. • AMPDU. Aggregated MAC Protocol Data Unit. Aggregates several MAC frames into a single large frame to achieve higher throughput. The default is enabled. • RIFS Transmission. Reduced Interframe Space. RIFS transmissions are shorter than other interframe spaces, and if this feature is enabled the access point will allow transmission of successive frames at different transmit powers. The default is disabled. • DTIM Interval. The Delivery Traffic Indication Message. Specifies the data beacon rate between 1 and 255. The default is 3. • Preamble Type. A long transmit preamble can provide a more reliable connection or a slightly longer range. A short transmit preamble gives better performance. The Auto settings automatically handles both long and short preambles. The default is Auto. 3. Click Apply to enable the wireless settings. Advanced Configuration 4-5 v1.0 March 2009
