Parameter Description Range environments like a training facility or exam hall, where a mix of 802.11a/g, 802.11g and 802.11n clients need equal to network resources, regardless of their capabilities. The bw-alloc parameter of a traffic management profile allows you to set a minimum bandwidth to be allocated to a virtual AP profile when there is congestion on the wireless network.You must set traffic shaping to fair-access to use this bandwidth allocation value for an individual virtual AP. l preferred-access: High-throughput (802.11n) clients do not get penalized because of slower 802.11a/g or 802.11b transmissions that take more air time due to lower rates. Similarly, faster 802.11a/g clients get more access than 802.11b clients. Default Usage Guidelines The traffic management profile allows you to allocate bandwidth to SSIDs. When you enable the band-steering feature, an AP keeps track of all BSSIDs active on a radio, all clients connected to the BSSID, and 802.11a/g, 802.11b, or 802.11n capabilities of each client. Every sampling period, airtime is allocated to each client, giving it opportunity to get and receive traffic. The specific amount of airtime given to an individual client is determined by; l Client capabilities (802.11a/g, 802.11b or 802.11n) l Amount of time the client spent receiving data during the last sampling period l Number of active clients in the last sampling period l Activity of the current client in the last sampling period The bw-alloc parameter of a traffic management profile allows you to set a minimum bandwidth to be allocated to a virtual AP profile when there is congestion on the wireless network.You must set traffic shaping to fair-access to use this bandwidth allocation value for an individual virtual AP. Example The following command configures a traffic management profile that allocates bandwidth to the corpnet virtual AP: (host) (config) #wlan traffic-management-profile best bw-alloc virtual-ap corpnet share 75 2353| wlan traffic-management-profile Dell Networking W-Series ArubaOS 6.5.x | Reference Guide
