Mbps for 5.0 GHz bands. Multicast traffic can be sent at up to 24 Mbps when this option is enabled. This option is disabled by default. l Dynamic multicast optimization- When Enabled, the W-IAP converts multicast streams into unicast streams over the wireless link. DMO enhances the quality and reliability of streaming video, while preserving the bandwidth available to non-video clients. l DMO channel utilization threshold- When dynamic multicast optimization is enabled, the W-IAP converts multicast streams into unicast streams as long as the channel utilization does not exceed this threshold. The default value is 90 and the maximum threshold value is 100%. If the threshold value exceeds the maximum value, then the W-IAP sends multicast traffic over the wireless link. b. Bandwidth Limits- You can specify three types of bandwidth limits. l Airtime- Indicates the aggregate amount of airtime that all clients on this Network can use to send/receive data. l Each user- Indicates the throughput for any single user on this Network. The throughput value is specified in kbps. l Each radio- Indicates the aggregate amount of throughput each radio (some AP models have multiple radios) is allowed to provide for all clients connected to that radio. c. Transmit Rates- Indicates the ability to configure the basic and supported rates per SSID for Dell W-Instant. Select to set the minimum and maximum legacy (non-802.11n) transmit rates for each band - 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. d. Miscellaneous l Content filtering- When enabled, all DNS requests to non-corporate domains on this wireless network are sent to OpenDNS. l Band- Set the band at which the network transmits radio signals. Available options are 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and All. The All option is selected by default. It is also the recommended option. l Inactivity timeout- Indicates the time in seconds after which an idle client ages out. The minimum value is 60 seconds and the default value is 1000 seconds. l Hide SSID- Select this check box if you do not want the SSID (network name) to be visible to users. l Max clients threshold- Indicates the maximum number of clients that can be configured for each BSSID on a WLAN. The supported range is 0 - 255 and the default value is 64. l Local probe request threshold- Enter the threshold value below which incoming probe requests will get ignored. The supported range of RSSI (Received signal strength indication) values is 0-100 dB. When a client sends a broadcast probe request frame to search for all available SSIDs, this option controls whether or not the system responds for this SSID. 4. Click Next to continue.

— When dynamic multicast optimization is enabled,
the W-IAP converts multicast streams into unicast streams as long as the channel

l
Content filtering— When enabled, all DNS requests to non-corporate domains on this
wireless network are sent to OpenDNS.

Band
—
Set the band at which the network transmits radio signals. Available options
are 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and All. The All option is selected by default. It is also the
recommended option.

—
Indicates the time in seconds after which an idle client ages out.
The minimum value is 60 seconds and the default value is 1000 seconds.
l
Hide SSID— Select this check box if you do not want the SSID (network name) to be

l
Max clients threshold— Indicates the maximum number of clients that can be
configured for each BSSID on a WLAN. The supported range is 0 - 255 and the
default value is 64.
l
Local probe request threshold— Enter the threshold value below which incoming
probe requests will get ignored. The supported range of RSSI (Received signal strength
