ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP210 Reference Manual Table 4-1 describes the settings for QoS queues. Table 4-1. QoS Queues and Parameters QoS Queue Data 0 (Voice) Data 1 (Video) Data 2 (Best Effort) Data 3 (Background) AIFS (Arbitration Inter-Frame Space) cwMin (Minimum Contention Window) cwMax (Maximum Contention Window) Max. Burst Length Description High-priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive data such as VoIP and streaming media are automatically sent to this queue. High-priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive video data is automatically sent to this queue. Medium-priority queue, medium throughput and delay. Most traditional IP data is sent to this queue. Lowest-priority queue, high throughput. Bulk data that requires maximum throughput and is not time-sensitive is sent to this queue (FTP data, for example). Specifies a wait time (in milliseconds) for data frames. Valid values for AIFS are 1 through 255. Upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial random backoff wait time is determined. Valid values for the cwMin are 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, and 1024. The value for cwMin must be lower than the value for cwMax. Upper limit (in milliseconds) for the doubling of the random backoff value. Valid values for the cwMax are 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, and 1024. The value for cwMax must be higher than the value for cwMin. Specifies (in milliseconds) the maximum burst length allowed for packet bursts on the wireless network. A packet burst is a collection of multiple frames transmitted without header information. Valid values for maximum burst length are 0.0 through 999.9. Enabling Wireless Bridging and Repeating The ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point lets you build large bridged wireless networks. Select the wireless access point mode you want to use for your environment: • Wireless Point-to-Point Bridge. In this mode, the WNAP210 can communicate with another bridge-mode wireless station and with wireless clients if you select the Enable Wireless Client Association check box. To associate wireless clients with this access point, select clients from the list in the Enable Wireless Clients Association table, and select the corresponding check box in the Enable column. 4-8 Advanced Configuration v1.0 March 2009

Table 4-1
describes the settings for QoS queues.
Table 4-1.
QoS Queues and Parameters
QoS Queue
Description
Data 0 (Voice)
High-priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive data such as VoIP
and streaming media are automatically sent to this queue.
Data 1 (Video)
High-priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive video data is
automatically sent to this queue.
Data 2 (Best Effort)
Medium-priority queue, medium throughput and delay. Most traditional
IP data is sent to this queue.
Data 3 (Background)
Lowest-priority queue, high throughput. Bulk data that requires
maximum throughput and is not time-sensitive is sent to this queue
(FTP data, for example).
AIFS (Arbitration Inter-Frame
Space)
Specifies a wait time (in milliseconds) for data frames. Valid values for
AIFS are 1 through 255.
cwMin (Minimum Contention
Window)
Upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial random
backoff wait time is determined. Valid values for the cwMin are 1, 3, 7,
15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, and 1024. The value for cwMin must be lower
than the value for cwMax.
cwMax (Maximum Contention
Window)
Upper limit (in milliseconds) for the doubling of the random backoff
value. Valid values for the cwMax are 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511,
and 1024. The value for cwMax must be higher than the value for
cwMin.
Max. Burst Length
Specifies (in milliseconds) the maximum burst length allowed for packet
bursts on the wireless network. A packet burst is a collection of multiple
frames transmitted without header information. Valid values for
maximum burst length are 0.0 through 999.9.
Enabling Wireless Bridging and Repeating
The ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point lets you build large bridged wireless networks. Select the
wireless access point mode you want to use for your environment:
Wireless Point-to-Point Bridge
. In this mode, the WNAP210 can communicate with another
bridge-mode wireless station and with wireless clients if you select the
Enable Wireless
