Table 21: WLAN Configuration Parameters Parameter Description DTIM interval The DTIM interval indicates the delivery traffic indication message (DTIM) period in beacons, which can be configured for every WLAN SSID profile. The DTIM interval determines how often the W-IAP should deliver the buffered broadcast and multicast frames to associated clients in the powersave mode. The default value is 1, which means the client checks for buffered data on the W-IAP at every beacon. You can also configure a higher DTIM value for power saving. Min RSSI probe request Sets a minimum received signal strength indication (RSSI) threshold for probe requests. Min RSSI auth request Sets a minimum RSSI threshold for authentication requests. Very high throughput Enables the VHT function on W-IAP devices that support VHT. For 802.11acW-IAPs, the VHT function is enabled by default. However, you can disable the VHT function if you want the 802.11ac W-IAPs to function as 802.11n W-IAPs. If VHT is configured or disabled on an SSID, the changes will apply only to the SSID on which it is enabled or disabled. Zone Specify the zone for the SSID. When the zone is defined in SSID profile and if the same zone is defined on a W-IAP, the SSID is created on that W-IAP. For more information on configuring zone details, see Configuring Zone Settings on a W-IAP on page 63. Time Range Click Edit, select a Time Range Profile from the list and specify if the profile must be enabled or disabled for the SSID, and then click OK. Bandwidth Limits Select the required options under Bandwidth Limits: l Airtime-Select this check box to specify an aggregate amount of airtime that all clients in this network can use for sending and receiving data. Specify the airtime percentage. l Each radio-Select this check box to specify an aggregate amount of throughput that each radio is allowed to provide for the connected clients. l Downstream and Upstream-Specify the downstream and upstream rates within a range of 1 to 65,535 Kbps for the SSID users. If the assignment is specific for each user, select the Per user check box. Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) traffic management Configure the following options for WMM traffic management. WMM supports voice, video, best effort, and background access categories. To allocate bandwidth for the following types of traffic, specify a percentage value under Share. To configure Differntiated Service Code Point (DSCP) mapping, specify a value under DSCP Mapping. l Background WMM-For background traffic such as file downloads or print jobs. l Best effort WMM-For best effort traffic such as traffic from legacy devices or traffic from applications or devices that do not support QoS. l Video WMM-For video traffic generated from video streaming. l Voice WMM-For voice traffic generated from the incoming and outgoing voice communication. 80 | Wireless Network Profiles Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.5.1.0-4.3.1.0 | User Guide
